Pro-competitive industrial policy
Recent global developments, and a number of serious crises, have led to large government
interventions in many jurisdictions, driving a debate on whether there is a need to
rethink the role of industrial policy in modern economies. This paper explores how
to use industrial policy and make it pro-competitive. Competition authorities can
play a crucial role in strengthening the impact of industrial policy: by ensuring
that competition principles remain a cornerstone of carefully designed industrial
policy. Moreover, competition enforcement keeps markets more competitive, laying a
good foundation for industrial policy.
