Administrative burden and regulatory governance in Korea

This chapter provides a data-driven overview of regulatory policies in Korea. It starts by providing a set of indicators on the level of administrative and regulatory burden as perceived by businesses and experts in the country. It then continues with an assessment of regulatory practices and procedures used by the Korean government and other OECD countries to design and review regulations. In particular, it focuses on the extent to which stakeholder consultations, regulatory impact analysis and ex post evaluations are carried out to inform regulatory reforms throughout the full policy-making cycle.
