Chapter 1. Conditions and Need for Adoption of Strategy
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
Currently, the creation of an effective competitive environment and the gradual reduction of monopoly on the market of goods and services remain a priority area for solving problems of further development and liberalization of the economy.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
To this end, measures are being taken to reduce the participation of the state in the country's economy and the transition to market mechanisms is being carried out.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
In recent years, in the field of entrepreneurial activity, the tax burden has been reduced and 86 separate licensed types of activities and permission procedures have been canceled, including by combining 38 types into 16, reducing the processing time for 25 types and centralizing the issuance of 14 licenses and permits.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
There has been a consistent development of the business sector; in the last three years alone, the number of operating business entities has increased by 25 percent.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
The measures taken ensured the development of competition in many markets for food products (soft drinks, juices, bread, bakery products, meat and dairy products, confectionery and others) and certain markets for non-food products (furniture, carpets and rugs, textile products and others) produced by domestic producers. The monopoly of large companies has been eliminated in the market for building materials, cable and wire products, and money transfer services.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
The exchange mechanism created made it possible to equally provide market participants with highly liquid and monopoly types of raw materials and materials. Currently, 65 percent of the turnover of the Uzbek Republican Commodity and Raw Materials Exchange falls on monopoly products.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
As a result of the reforms carried out in recent years, the number of monopoly enterprises has more than halved.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
At the same time, the following systemic problems remain unresolved, negatively affecting the competitive environment in the country's economy:

§ 1. Excessive Participation of the State in the Economy
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
Currently, economic entities with the participation of the state dominate the commodity and financial markets, for example, 80 percent of monopoly organizations have a state share or are controlled by economic entities with a state share.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
In connection with the unsettledness in the legislation of the issue of the ownership of economic entities by the state and the implementation of control by the state, difficulties remain in determining the degree of participation of the state in the economy.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
Economic entities with the participation of the state create structures under their control in the form of state unitary enterprises (SUEs) and subsidiaries that negatively affect competition. Currently, the number of such enterprises is more than 4,300, including in the form of joint-stock companies and limited liability companies - more than 1,300, in the form of state unitary enterprises - more than 1,800 and their affiliates - more than 1,100.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
Underdeveloped market environment and excessive participation of the state in the economy leads to inefficiency in the activities of individual economic entities with the participation of the state, which is compensated by state support in the form of cross subsidies, tax and customs benefits, preferences and concessional loans.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
There is a high concentration of government participation and powers in financial and capital markets (stock exchanges, central depository, banks), which gives rise to a conflict of interests and hinders the development of market mechanisms.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
For example, a monopoly of the National Bank for Foreign Economic Activity of the Republic of Uzbekistan JSC, which belongs to the state, has been established for servicing settlements on transactions with securities on the stock exchange. Overall, 83 percent of the banking sector operates with government participation.

§ 2. Excessive Price Regulation
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
To date, state regulation of prices (declaring, approving, setting fixed or cap prices (tariffs), a regulating coefficient, setting margins and a marginal level of profitability and other methods of price regulation) is carried out in relation to more than 30 goods and services.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
At the same time, despite the fact that in the field of natural monopolies tariffs are regulated for 10 types of goods (works, services), in fact, 137 different price levels are applied, set based on the categories of consumers and suppliers, as well as the territorial principle.
Ҳужжатга таклиф юборишАудиони тинглашҲужжат элементидан ҳавола олиш
The cost-based pricing method used by monopoly enterprises and natural monopoly entities consists of a scheme for adding a minimum profit to costs, which leads to an unreasonable increase in costs, does not stimulate a decrease in production costs, and the increase in costs is in turn compensated by direct price increases and tariffs for consumers.
