Competition Buzz: Assessment of antitrust agencies impact and performance: an analytical framework
Juan Delgado; Hector Otero; Eduardo Perez-Asenjo
Journal of Antitrust Enforcement 2016;
The assessment of antitrust agencies’ impact and performance serves three goals: first, to assess how well competition agencies have done their job; secondly, to help to correct their future strategy and to improve the allocation of limited resources, and finally, to respond to the need for accountability of public agencies. We propose an analytical framework to evaluate the impact of the interventions of antitrust agencies (eg infringement decisions, merger control decisions, advocacy work, etc.). The framework proposed combines comprehensiveness (including all activities by agencies) and simplicity (through a number of synthetic indicators). The framework classifies interventions according to their nature and impact measurability and proposes activity, relevance, and impact indicators to assess agencies’ performance.
