“…His general conclusion was that efficiency is positively related to the degree of foreign competition faced by Swedish industry. Bergsman (1974) found similar results for six countries. For a more in-depth overview on the evidence relating competition, and competition policy, to macroeconomic outcomes, such as growth, see the Secretariat paper "Factsheet on Competition and Growth" [DAF/COMP/WP2(2013)11] available at http://www.oecd.org/daf/competition/productivity-growth-competition.htm.…”

“…Sa conclusion générale est que l'efficience est positivement corrélée au degré de concurrence étrangère à laquelle est confronté le secteur industriel suédois. Bergsman (1974) arrive à une conclusion similaire à l'issue d'une étude sur six pays. Pour un examen plus détaillé des éléments concrets associant la concurrence et la politique de la concurrence aux résultats macroéconomiques comme la croissance, voir le document du Secrétariat intitulé « Factsheet on Competition and Growth » [DAF/COMP/WP2(2013)11] à l'adresse http://www.oecd.org/daf/competition/productivity-growth-competition.htm.…”

“…Harberger (1974) estimates the efficiency loss due to the monopolization of U.S. manufacturing sector at 0.1% of GDP. Bergsman (1974) estimates the welfare cost of tariff and non-tariff protection in Brazil at 0.3% of GDP; he points out that this cost rises to an exceptional level of 7.1% after taking into account the losses for Xefficiency and the monopolization of markets induced by protection itself. Fernández and Rodríguez (1980) estimate a welfare loss related to the Argentine state telephone monopoly at 1.5% of GDP for the year 1980.…”
