This panel explores the origins and performance of regulatory agencies in developing countries. The four papers cover a range of developing countries—in Africa, Asia, and Latin America—and a number of regulatory spheres: investment, intellectual property, labor and employment, and the rules governing the civil service itself. Collectively, they speak to the roles of domestic and international factors in conditioning the behaviour and evolution of regulatory agencies.
