Week 9 -- November 16th : Benefit Analysis in Consumer Protection Regulation

Howell E. Jackson

In this week's class, we will look at a draft study of benefit analysis in consumer protection regulation, focusing on the quality of current CBA work in this area.  As guest to the seminar will be Paul Rothtsein of the CFPB, a co-author of the study, as well as Lisa Robinson, a leading practitioner of benefit cost analysis and a lecturer at the Chan School of Public Health at Harvard University.  This week's session may run a bit longer than usual, but will be over by 7:00 pm if not sooner.
