Promoting Regulatory Prediction

Promoting regulatory gene variation in sodium reabsorption.

Many genes in an individual genome exist as allelic variants with 1 dimorphic form inherited from each parent. Although these alleles share a common regulatory environment within the same nucleus, they do not necessarily respond to it in the same way. Variation in the promoter sequences of genes, most of which are single base substitutions, may alter the binding of transcription factors that re...

Outcome-Based Regulatory Strategies for Promoting Greater Patient Safety

The patient safety movement seeks to reduce the number of avoidable injuries and diseases that patients suffer while in hospital. Two regulatory strategies in support of that movement are explored here. “Required disclosure” would rely on market responses to an increase in publicly available information about hospital errors. “Performancebased regulation” would require hospitals to reduce their...

Promoting Competition and Regulatory Policy: With Examples from Network Industries

INTRODUCTION It is a special pleasure for me to be here to address you today and to participate in the series of lectures organized by the Research Center for Regulation and Competition. We are helping to establish centers around the world to promote an understanding of competition and regulatory policy, and this is the first center in Asia (the other centers are in Argentina and Cote d'Ivoire)...

Modeling Basel Regulatory in DSGE with Emphasis on Adequacy Regulatory

In this paper Basel regulation is modeled in Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) framework. For this purpose, using data from 1981-2017 for Iran, capital adequacy as an importance regulation is modeled. Results show Basel regulation has procyclical effect. According to the results of the model and according to the realities of economy and banking system of Iran, in recession, lending ...
