Our Apologies for the Interrupted Service

Our apologies for the intermittent posting.  We’ve had some technical difficulties to work out after being shut down from spam attacks on a few occasions of late (some of you may have noticed a pottery website that was parked here while we were shut down).  While we might be upgrading and cleaning the place up ...

The Economics and Regulation of Payment Card Interchange Fees: Paper and Conference

Two related items from ICLE: As regular readers know, interchange fees are a frequent topic of conversation around the blog.  Taking the conversation from the ether to the real world, ICLE has funded a white paper and is putting on a conference next week on the topic.  The conference, in fact, grows out of the ...

Off to Taiwan

A two week trip, including stops on the way back in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.  Posting will be light, but I may have some comments on the local scene or on earthshaking business-related developments back home.

"Prosocial," Output-Reducing Collusion

One of my antitrust students recently pointed me to a television commercial that could inspire a great exam question. Unfortunately, I didn’t see the ad until I’d finished drafting this semester’s antitrust exam (which I’ve been grading…hence the absence from TOTM). The T.V. commercial trumpets an agreement among the members of the American Beverage Association ... "Prosocial," Output-Reducing Collusion

Google's Very Public Efficiencies Defense

Here is Google’s attempt to measure its the economic impact of Google search and adwords, adsense and its Google grants programs.  Some media coverage (including a critique of the calculations) here.  The total?  $54 billion.  The report includes state-by-state breakdowns.  Not exactly a made-for-litigation antitrust expert report, but I’m sure a few copies have been ...

Delaware's Future

I share Prof. Ribstein’s concerns about the federalization of corporate governance contained in the Dodd bill.  Though Senator Carper wasn’t able, in the end, to get the proxy access provisions out of the Dodd Bill, which I think were the most troubling, we did eliminate another of Senator Schumer’s ideas. (The corporate governance provisions of ... Delaware's Future

Law entrepreneurs

On Thursday I’ll be speaking at the Law & Entrepreneurship “Conference within a Conference” hosted by Law & Society at its annual meeting in Chicago.  Here’s my panel, also including Rob Beard, Brian Broughman and Erik Gerding. My topic is “law entrepreneurs.”   My presentation will continue my speculation, begun in Death of Big Law, on ... Law entrepreneurs

The federalization of corporate governance marches on

Last month I noted that the Senate was about to repeat its SOX mistake with another ill-fated foray into regulating corporate governance.  I focused on provisions for mandatory majority voting, separation of the board chair and CEO jobs, risk committees, say-on-pay, and pay-performance disclosures.   Now Annette Nazareth summarizes (HT Bainbridge) the provisions in the ...

Who is Pressuring Antitrust? A Response to Wright

[Jonathan Baker (American University, currently on leave at the Federal Communications Commission where he is Chief Economist) has written the following response to Josh’s earlier post commenting on Baker’s forthcoming article: Preserving a Political Bargain: The Political Economy of the Non-Interventionist Challenge to Monopolization Enforcement.   Eds.] Thanks to Josh for engaging with my article in ...

Cassano wins the corporate crime lottery

Justice has decided not to go after Joe Cassano, the man who crashed the world. The WSJ attributes this decision to the “high bar [the government] needs to meet to make criminal charges stick in a courtroom.”  How nice that the government has discovered this bar.  That could have something to do with its getting its head ...

Litigating Delaware governance law in an alien land

A recent Delaware case, Baker v. Impact Holding, Inc.,  raises several interesting questions on a topic I’ve discussed recently – where to litigate cases involving Delaware business entities. Francis Pileggi has a good summary of the case.  I want to explore the case’s implications for jurisdictional competition.  First some general background before getting into the ...
