SUMMARY

Describes the theory and provides empirical evidence for the benefits of competition in terms of static and dynamic efficiency and consumer welfare and some trade-offs which may arise. The study further reviews evidence relating to the broader effects of competition on welfare, growth and trade competitiveness, considering in this context some effects of direct governmental intervention. It also sets out evidence relating to the beneficial effects of controlling restrictive business practices and competition advocacy by competition authorities
