Fair Market Conditions for Competitiveness in the Adriatic Region

Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)

Fair Market Conditions for Competitiveness in the Adriatic Region

Mission

Create fair market conditions in the Adriatic Region by promoting OECD standards via a Collective Action community

Goals

The project intends to support the creation of a level-playing field and fair market conditions in three pilot countries from the Adriatic Region (Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina) in order to enhance competitiveness and integrity in a sustainable and inclusive way. Through this project the OECD seeks to:

  • Raise awareness about OECD standards and good practices of anti-corruption, integrity and fair competition for competitiveness with governments, business and civil society

  • Build capacity and foster the implementation of concrete OECD recommendations with regard to the transparency and efficiency of anti-corruption and competition authorities

  • Promote the latest knowledge on international standards and practices in the area of anti-corruption and integrity for competitiveness in academic curricula

  • Encourage the introduction of anti-corruption mechanisms such as the High-level Reporting Mechanism and the Business Ombudsman

Activities

The project included activities such as webinars, policy briefs, in-country meetings, and academic engagement to promote anti-corruption, integrity, and fair competition in the Adriatic Region.

A number of publications including Country Profiles, Policy Briefs as well as Manuals for Policy Makers and for the Business Sector were published on the project website and shared with stakeholders across the Adriatic Region.
