Regulatory Law

Privatization in South Sudan has led to the enactment of regulatory laws and creation of regulatory bodies in areas such as Oil & Gas Commission, National Communications Authority, broadcasting, water and energy, transportation, banking and many other areas. Compliance with the regulatory requirements is becoming more complex and costlier. Investigations by various authorities and enforcement are increasingly frequent and more aggressive.
