Resumen
Descripción
Regulatory reform in all its
aspects--deregulation, re-regulation, simplification, and
building new institutional capacities for developing and
applying high quality market rules--should be integrated
throughout Mauritania's efforts to generate the growth
and market development needed to combat poverty, improve
standards of living, and lay the foundation for a
sustainable development. This report identifies practical
reforms to regulatory policies, institutions, and processes
that can help accelerate economic growth in Mauritania and
bring its regulatory practices closer to good international
practices. Recommendations fall into three broad categories:
1) use regulatory reform and coordination to enlarge and
deepen Mauritania's internal, regional, and
international markets in order to stimulate investment and
competition; 2) improve public sector capacities to design
and apply market-oriented regulation that is transparent,
efficient, and neutral; and 3) as the market develops,
promote attention to competition principles by clarifying
the role of government intervention and focusing on market abuses.
