Abstract

As the PCC celebrates its tenth anniversary, this symposium of the Philippine Review of Economics serves as a way to look back on a decade of the institution’s growth and to preview the challenges that lie ahead. It does so by presenting research that looks at competition and policy issues in both traditional markets (e.g., rice and labor), as well as digital platforms (e.g., ride-hailing and food delivery apps). Our call for papers sought contributions that would highlight the importance of rigorous economic analysis and its interactions with public policies in today's markets. The selected papers,1 discussed next, provide insights into enforcing antitrust policy within a developing country context and a clear indication that more can still be done to safeguard competition.
