The project seeks to strengthen CLICAC's institutional ability to execute its competition, consumer protection, and trade advisory responsibilities. Its specific objectives are to i) enhance CLICAC's ability to establish and execute antitrust policies that will increase competition in Panama's economy; ii) develop conceptual principles and methodologies for enforcing Panama's consumer protection laws and applying CLICAC's advocacy mandate; iii) build an analytical framework for resolving anti-dumping and subsidy issues; and iv) create guidelines for exercising CLICAC's authority to advise on safeguards requests due to unfair trade practices.
