Tariff Reform and Product Market Integration in Developing Countries: The Case of Zambia

Abstract

This project investigates the extent and determinants of intranational product market integration using a price approach in the context of Zambia, a low-income and landlocked country in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our results show substantial within-country market segmentation, which is affected by both internal and external factors such as transportation costs, product specific characteristics, location and tariff reforms.
