Course Overview

From the beginning, regulations have been considered to be a part of the fields of economics and law, but nowadays it increasingly forms a large part of other disciplines such as marketing, psychology, and sociology.

The level of understanding required in this area is earning momentum in modern economies and organisations. From an economic standpoint, regulation looks at the advantages and disadvantages of different regulatory approaches and to what extent their goals are achieved.

From a legal point of view, it looks at the impact of existing norms and evaluates evidence-based recommendations as to how policies should be designed.

The field of regulation has gained momentum since phenomena such as climate change, food scarcity, technological, and global trade initiates new challenges for regulative measures.

What will the participants of this ‘Economic Regulation and Pricing’ course learn? The participants of this course will examine the commercial and official roots of regulations, the purposes of liability law under various jurisdictions, major regulatory methodologies used at national (civil and common law) and international level (e.g. EU, WTO).

They will also be trained in some of the tools used in the field. Topics such as the effect of regulation on investment and international trade from a spatial and temporal perspective will also be covered, in addition to the effectiveness of liability, rules to govern externalities.

This Zoe’s Economic Regulation and Pricing training course will provide you with tactics to lower your costs and to construct efficient regulatory systems and responses.

If you are a regulatory organisation, or somebody who is going to be (or already is) subject to regulation policies, fostering an awareness of surrounding issues in the field of economic regulation will enable you to enhance your performance and competitive advantage in the business environment.
