Filemon Campo‐Flores

Review of Policy Research, 1994, vol. 13, issue 3‐4, 235-248

Abstract: Privatization, defined as the transfer of state‐owned enterprises to the private sector, plays a vital role in the economic growth of developing countries and in the transformation of nationalized countries to market economies. Despite its importance, current literature focuses little attention on the effective management of privatization. Most research discusses the benefits and problems of privatization. This article provides additional insight into effective management of the privatization process using a case study of the sale of the national telephone company of Argentina. The study identifies certain conditions necessary for transferring government assets to the private sector. The analysis also identifies strategies for effective privatization and tasks after the process is complete.
