Critique of regulatory judgements

One form of legal case involves a challenge to regulatory decisions. We offer expert witness assistant assessing whether regulatory decisions are in line with established policy objectives or regulatory precedent and what the competition or other implications are of those decisions or alternatives.

Assessment of profitability or cost of capital

In regulated price controls, a key input is the determined cost of capital. This has often been a subject of appeals against regulatory judgements. Cost of capital analysis also feeds into assessments of profitability in assessing whether firms have been charging prices above the competitive level, and into the valuation of research pipelines in mergers.

Critique of econometric, quantitative methods or data used to support regulatory decisions

One form of a legal case is judicial revision of policy decisions. Such policy decisions are often supported by quantitative models. Those models can be critiqued in various ways – criticised or defended on the basis of their methodology or the data used.
