Abstract

The work is an attempt to give the first Russian integrated quantitative assessment of the losses arising from the restrictions of competition. For the analysis of selected several key areas: gas industry, railway cargo transportation, construction, pharmaceutical industry and the restriction of competition from imports. Presented in the report empirical estimates allow to rethink the role of competition policy in promoting economic growth and development. For experts in the field of competition policy and economic regulation, students current problems of economic development, as well as all interested in the modern development of the Russian economy.
