The major objective of this study is to answer the question: to what extent is firmlevel
performance measured by investment, productivity and export influenced by
government measures aiming to stimulate competition and protect consumers against
monopoly? To analyse this influence, the study assesses the effect of control of
dominant firms through institutions, the effect of mergers to prevent industries becoming
monopolized and the effect of control of anti-competitive behaviour. The analysis
focuses on assessing firm-level effects due to existing government efforts to regulate
business activity in order to ensure that it operates in the public interest. In
particular, the study analyses the role of competition policy in influencing productivity,
investment and export performance of Tanzanian manufacturing enterprises. The
study focuses on the hypothesis that fair competition has a causal impact on the
quality and quantity of manufactured exports, productivity and investment. |
