Regulation, Markets and Poverty analyses the policy implications of research into issues of competition, regulation and regulatory governance in developing countries. Particular attention is paid to factors affecting poverty and to the connection between regulation, competition and poverty. It represents the culmination of research undertaken in the past five years by the Centre on Regulation and Competition. Written in a non-technical manner with references to the more technical literature, each chapter draws on the work of leading experts across a range of disciplines who frequently challenge conventional wisdom. This accessible and lively study will appeal to policymakers and practitioners dealing with regulation and competition in developing countries, postgraduate students of regulation, competition, public policy and international business. Staff of international development agencies and NGOs working on governance issues, competitiveness, utility policy and infrastructure investment will also find this important book of value and interest.

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 1, , language: English, abstract: In the global economy, privatization has become a central issue within economic reforms taking place in developing countries, and it is associated with the neo-liberal model reforms from the 1980's. Developing countries struggle to maintain high standards in public services such as water, energy, telecommunications, transportation, health, education, and, therefore, the adoption of policies to increase the effectiveness are needed. Privatization in theory should help these entities to become more efficient and benefit the majority of the population though, in practice, these objectives are rarely accomplished. The role of competition and regulation in such businesses are essential for development and growth, especially through the injection of private capital and fostering of competition. The principal common factor of these businesses is the natural component of monopolies which, according to Hellwig (2008), represents the use of a fixed network infrastructure that translates into largely sunk costs. Federal reforms aim for the improvement of performance in such important sectors of public services; however much of the research proves that; this has been reasonably unsuccessful in developing countries based on lack of institutional capacity. Even in theory, regulatory framework imported from developed countries was not suitable to the social and economic context in developing countries consequently the application of such previous experiences was not productive. This paper attempts to show that competition and regulation in the privatization process within developing countries could be successful if necessary reforms are based on the country’s economic, social, and political structure. As mentioned, the privatization process, as successfully applied in developed countries, requires significant adjustment for it to be pursued in transitional economies. This paper has been divided into five sections. The first section focuses on the concepts of privatization, competition and regulation. The second analyses how the role of RIA (Regulatory Impact Assessment) could increase privatization efficiency. On the other hand, the third analyses some system utilities and privatization reforms; then how competition could improve the business on privatization. The fourth section provides the control legal framework for businesses to follow. The paper concludes with recommendations and a brief summary and critique of the findings.

The 1990s and 2000s have witnessed a spurt of energetic institution-building in the developing world, as regulatory agencies emerge to take over the role of the executive in key sectors. This rise of the regulatory state of the south is barely noticed both by scholars of regulation and of development, let alone adequately documented and theorized. Yet the consequences for the role of the state and modalities of governance in the south are substantial, as politically charged decisions are handed over to formally technocratic agencies, creating new arenas and forms of contestation over the gains and losses from development decisions. Moreover, this shift in the developing world comes at a time when the regulatory state in the north is under considerable stress from the global financial crisis. Understanding the regulatory state of the south, and particularly forms of accommodation to political pressures, could stimulate a broader conversation around the role of the regulatory state in both north and south. This volume seeks to provoke such a discussion by empirically exploring the emergence of regulatory agencies of a range of developing countries across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The cases focus on telecommunications, electricity, and water: sectors that have often been at the frontlines of this transition. The central question for the volume is: Are there distinctive features of the regulatory state of the South, shaped by the political-economic context of the global south in the last two decades? To assist in exploring this question, the volume includes brief commentaries on the case studies from a range of disciplines: development economics, law and regulation, development sociology, and comparative politics. Collectively, the volume seeks to shape the contours of a productive inter-disciplinary conversation on the emergence of a significant empirical phenomenon - the rise of regulatory agencies in the developing world - with implications both for the study of regulation and the study of development.

The aim of this paper is to empirically explore the relationship between the quality of political institutions and the performance of regulation, an issue that has recently occupied much of the policy debate on the effectiveness of infrastructure industry reforms. Taking the view that political accountability is a key factor that links political structures and regulatory processes, the authors investigate, for the case of telecommunications, its impact on the performance of regulation in two time-series-cross-sectional data sets on 29 developing countries and 23 industrial countries covering the period 1985-99. In addition to confirming some well documented results on the positive role of regulatory governance in infrastructure industries, the authors provide empirical evidence on the impact of the quality of political institutions and their modes of functioning on regulatory performance. The analysis of the data sets shows that the (positive) effect of political accountability on the performance of regulation is stronger in developing countries. An important policy implication of this finding is that future reforms in these countries should give due attention to the development of politically accountable systems.

"The authors review a number of studies on the effectiveness of utility regulatory agency and governance arrangements for the electricity industry, particularly for developing countries. They discuss governance criteria and their measurement, both legal frameworks and surveys of regulatory practice. They also discuss the results from econometric studies of effectiveness for regulatory agencies in the electricity and telecommunications industries and compare these with the results from econometric studies of independent central banks and their governance. The authors conclude with a discussion of policy implications and of priorities for information collection to improve understanding of these issues. "--World Bank web site.
