Dear colleagues
My name is Izabela and I am a MRes/PhD Student at the LSE working on the
evolution and effectiveness of regulatory systems through transparency, i.e.
the disclosure of information with the purpose of helping regulators achieve
their purposes (e.g. improve the quality of public schools through the
disclosure of information that promote competition; improve the consumption of
fruits and vegetables by requesting that companies disclose information on
nutrition of products; disclosure of financial information by banks with the
purpose of informing investors about risks; so on).
In other words, I am talking about regulations that oblige the disclosure of
data/information as a mechanism to allow users to make choices (e.g. parents
deciding in which school to enrol their kids; consumers deciding to buy
healthier products; investors investing in funds with higher levels of
governance). I would like to ask your kind help in indicating any case studies
you know that have been conducted in this direction.
I am also looking for studies on the impact of open data and structured
information on consumers' choice. ANY suggestion in this direction is more than
welcome.
Best,
Izabela.
