"Sound competition policy vital to economic growth'

This was underscored by NEDA Secretary Arsenio Balisacan during the launch of the book titled "Designing Competition Policy for Economic Development in Asia and the Pacific" at the Asian Development Bank Institute in Tokyo, Japan.

Balisacan is co-editor of the book, which analyzes the critical role of competition policy in Asia-Pacific.

He said a sound competition policy could help achieve broader development objectives by boosting productivity and promoting innovation among market incumbents, ultimately benefiting consumers.
