The Competitive Neutrality Toolkit provides a set of good practices, based on examples from international experience, to support public officials in identifying and reducing distortions to competition due to state intervention. It supports the implementation of the principles set out in the OECD Recommendation on Competitive Neutrality to promote a level playing field, and covers the Recommendation’s main themes: competition law and enforcement, regulatory environment, public procurement, state support, and public service obligations.

Foreword

In 2021, the OECD Council adopted the Recommendation on Competitive Neutrality providing a set of principles to ensure that government actions are competitively neutral and that all enterprises face a level playing field, regardless of factors such as the enterprises’ ownership, location or legal form. The Recommendation aims at guaranteeing that competition is not unduly prevented, restricted or distorted.
