Abstract

In the current economic context marked by deep economic and political changes determined mainly by the challenges launched by economic and financial crisis, the EU is designing a new model of competition policy that focuses on a set of coordinated group actions to ensure transparency and a level playing field both for countries and companies operating within the Single Market. The regulatory and institutional framework modernization requires an assessment of EU competition policy enforcement. Using the WEF’s effectiveness of anti-monopoly policy index and the EBDR’s competition policy index this paper highlights some disparities between EU’s member states regarding the perceived effectiveness of competition policy implementation and the quality of actions undertaken to protect competition.
