SUMMARY

This note reviews a set of issues relating to consumer protection, competition and competitiveness from both a national and an international perspective. It raises questions elating to the new dimensions of consumer concerns, especially in developing countries and economies in transition, resulting from globalization and liberalization, such as the effects of privatization of utilities on consumers, deregulation and increased competition, consumer representation, and consumer access to financial services, as well as questions relating to capacity-building for rule-making and enforcement. Issues in international cooperation in the enforcement of consumer protection are also raised
