The rise of behavioural economics has given us a much better understanding of how people act. This has challenged some of the assumptions that regulators make when deciding if a market is working well. This session considers if markets can deliver the best outcomes for consumers and the economy as a whole or whether behavioural economics provides a fundamental challenge to the idea that competition is good for consumers.
Speakers include: Amelia Fletcher, Daniel Gordon, Stefan Hunt, Paul Heidheus, Felicity Algate
