A Pro-Market Agenda for El Salvador

Eduardo Engel

No 28438, Center Discussion Papers from Yale University, Economic Growth Center

Abstract: This paper argues that, despite important productivity gains, reforms have benefited consumers much less than expected in El Salvador. Antitrust legislation, consumer protection and an adequate regulation of privatized utilities are central ingredients of a successful market economy. Major reforms that are needed in each one of these areas in El Salvador are described.
