Economic & Political WeeklySummary: This paper examines whether greater market competition stimulates investment. Cross-country evidence suggests that higher levels of competition are associated with increased investment rates, particularly in emerging economies and in contexts characterised by low baseline investment. Industry-level evidence from India’s manufacturing sector similarly indicates a positive association between competition and investment. Notably, the effects of competition appear to be concentrated in export-oriented and digitally intensive industries. From a policy perspective, these findings point to the need for an industrial strategy that integrates competition policy with targeted investment incentives to support sustained investment growth.-Reproduced
