On December 05, 1980, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Set of Multilaterally Agreed Equitable Principles and Rules for the Control of Restrictive Business Practices (commonly known as the UN Set), a landmark moment in the evolution of global competition law and policy.
To commemorate this milestone, CUTS International and the COMESA Competition Commission (CCC) jointly urge all stakeholders to observe December 05 as World Competition Day (WCD) and advocate for its formal recognition by the United Nations.
