The Regulatory Policy Institute Information

The objective of the RPI is to promote the study of the regulation of economic activity, with a view to deepening our understanding of the drivers and impacts, intended and unintended, of a range of public policies, and thereby to contribute to more effective policy development in the future. The RPI conducts independent and collaborative research, undertakes projects on specific issues, organises seminars and conferences, and publishes relevant material. Most research work is based in Oxford, although larger projects may involve collaboration with other research centres in the UK, EU and elsewhere. Seminars and conferences are generally held in Oxford or London but the RPI also makes contributions globally to relevant events.
