New Technical Assistance project on Competition Assessment in Egypt

Lear is pleased to announce a new technical assistance project on behalf of the World Bank Group, for the analysis of product market regulations (PMR) in Egypt. As a first step, Lear is expected to identify those markets of the Egyptian economy that are currently suffering from anti-competitive regulations. As a second step, Lear will provide recommendations to the Egyptian Competition Authority (ECA), suggesting feasible alternatives to current regulations. In addition, the work will involve the drafting of guidelines on fines and settlements and the development of a methodology to compute both direct and indirect damages due to the anticompetitive practices.
