Ipr Protection

Using panel data for 57 countries over the period of 1995–2012, this paper investigates the impact of intellectual property rights (IPR) processes on productivity growth. The IPR processes are decomposed into three stages — innovation process, commercialization process, and protection process. The paper finds that better IPR protection is directly associated with productivity improvements only in developed economies. In addition, the contribution of IPR processes on growth through foreign direct investment (FDI) appears to be quite limited. Only inward FDI in developed countries which creates better innovative capability leads to higher growth. In connection with outward FDI, only the increase in IPR protection and commercialization are proven to improve productivity in the case of developing countries, particularly when the country acts as the investing country.

Antitrust Regulation

Oligopoly models where prior actions by firms affect subsequent marginal costs have been useful in illuminating policy debates in areas such as antitrust regulation, environmental protection, and international competition. We discuss properties of such models when a Cournot equilibrium occurs at the second stage. Aggregate production costs strictly decline with no change in gross revenue or gross consumer surplus if the prior actions strictly increase the variance of marginal costs without changing the marginal-cost sum. Therefore, unless the cost of inducing second-stage asymmetry more than offsets this reduction in production costs, the private and social optima are asymmetric. (JEL D43, L13, L40)

This paper examines the impacts of intellectual property rights (IPR) protection in foreign markets on ASEAN countries' exports for the period 2005 - 2010 using a dyanamic panel data model, which allows us to account for persistence effect. In order to solve the inconsistency of OLS in a dynamic modelling, we opt for the system GMM estimator because it helps researchers overcome the problems of serial correlation,heteroskedasticity, and enogeneity for some explanator variables. Our reselts are robust and summarized as follows. first, reinfoced IPR protection in foreign countries has a positive effect on ASEAN'S exports, indicating the dominance of market expansion effect. Second, regardless of the level of economic development in importing countries, stronger IPR protection induces ASEAN's exports to foreign countries. Third, the trade impacts of IPR protection are strongest in high-income trading partners, followed by medium-income,and finally, low-income partner countries. Fourth,at the sectoral level, the effect of IPR protection is found to be the strongest for capital-intensive exports to highly developed countries.

The purpose of the research is to suggest scientific approaches to prove the necessity of conducting state regulation, to construct a mechanism for the state regulation of the insurance system and to find some opportunities to improve this mechanism in order to develop both the insurance system and the national economy. The article analyzes the conceptual and categorical framework of the theory of the state regulation of the insurance system and considers various approaches to understanding the concept of the state regulation mechanism in the insurance sector. The main specific features of the state regulation in the insurance market, one the one hand, and the state regulation in the insurance system, on the other hand, is highlighted. It is determined that the development of the insurance system is influenced by a combination of factors, so the system’s regulation provided by the state acquires specific features subject to the time, country and economic policy adopted. A new take on the concept of the state regulation of the insurance system is proposed, defining it as the application of the state leverage to influence the bunch of elements that ensure the effective performance of the insurance system in order to achieve its stable development and economic growth. A mechanism of state regulation of the insurance system development has been built, which should include the following elements: the strategic goal, tasks, subjects, objects, principles, functions, methods and tools, forms of the state regulation and factors influencing the insurance system development. The following principles of the state regulation of the insurance system development are highlighted: sufficiency, adequacy, consistency, openness, fairness, expediency, efficiency, stability. The following forms of the state regulation have been studied: statutory regulation, administrative regulation, antitrust regulation, tax regulation, price regulation, financial monitoring.

PurposeThis study aims to empirically investigate how difference in social trust explains the heterogeneity of intellectual property right (IPR) protection (proxied by software piracy rate) across countries. Specifically, the authors also examine whether this effect is complementary or substitute to legal and economic factors.Design/methodology/approachThe authors use both ordinary least square and two-stage least square regressions to investigate this effect.FindingsThe authors find that there is also a complementary effect between trust and rule of law in reducing the violation of IPRs.Originality/valueAlthough the literature by now has documented the solid relationship between trust and the quality of formal institutions, only few studies have explored more specific measures of institutional consequences. Thus, this study is the first study investigating the role of trust, a valuable social capital dimension, on IPR protection.
