The UN Set is a multilateral agreement on competition policy that:

Provides a set of equitable rules for the control of anti-competitive practices.
Recognizes the development dimension of competition law and policy.
Provides a framework for international operation and exchange of best practices.

This framework also provides vital technical assistance and capacity-building for interested member States so that they are better equipped to use competition law and policy for development.

The Model Law is made up of two parts: Part 1 is a permanent guide and is not subject to revision whereas Part 2 is revised regularly, chapter by chapter.
