A Time for Action (Un Temps pour Agir)

Overview

The country research reports of a two-year project ‘Strengthening Constituencies for Effective Competition Regimes in Select West African Countries (also referred to as 7Up4 project) that CUTS has implemented in seven countries of West Africa is published in two volumes. The English volume contains the anglophone country reports (Ghana, Nigeria and The Gambia) and the French contains the francophone country reports (Burkina Faso, Mali, Senegal and Togo).The reports are a unique source of information about the state of competition in each country and the comparative inter-country analysis leads to very useful observations. These observations relate to the sequencing of policies in the process of economic liberalisation, the institutional design of competition law systems at the national and regional levels, and the prerequisites for a successful transition to a market economy, and others.
