This study investigates global economies whose regulatory regimes are leading in area-specific outcome measures.

The research focussed on 3 themes in its comparison of the UK with these other world-leading regimes:

  • the effects of rules-based versus principles-based approaches to regulating
  • the UK’s use of private third parties to play a leading role in the implementation of regulations
  • the complexity of regulatory regimes in the UK compared to leading third countries
