Delivering on Economic Prosperity in Israel
How Monopolies Are Hampering the “Start-Up Nation”
Brookings Institution,
2016
Recommendation
Israel’s economy – a fertile incubator for tech start-ups, perhaps rivaled only by Silicon Valley – stands out for excessive market concentrations across most of its industrial and service sectors. According to economist Dany Bahar, the Israeli middle class isn’t benefiting from the nation’s vibrant economy due to its high consumer prices, partly the result of monopolies. Thus, Israelis advocate political efforts to lower their cost of living. getAbstract recommends this insightful article on Israel’s economic challenges to analysts, policy makers and executives.
