Island nations have particular economies, with close ties between business owners, government and politics. Aruba, an autonomous country in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, with just over 100,000 inhabitants has over 4,000 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). Moreover, Aruba鈥檚 GDP per capita is higher than many European countries.

In 2023 the AFTA was instantiated, and has since been enforcing the Aruban competition code in markets for real estate, telecommunications and foodstuffs. With the AFTA leadership we will discuss their experience setting up a competition authority, and enforcing competition law in thriving, but tightly knit economy.
