BSc(Econ), MA, PhD
Job Title: Senior Lecturer in Business Economics Subject Group: Business, Society and Business Economics Key Research Interests: EU competition policy; mergers; cartels; small firms |
The main strand of my research focuses on developments in competition policy and its role in moulding firms’ strategies and in determining the competitiveness of the economy. I am particularly interested in the EU merger control regime including why EU and US merger decisions may diverge despite the recent moves to cooperate in merger control; how effects on innovation are assessed in the two regimes, and what the effects are on firms' restructuring. I am also interested in the managerial implications of the recent EU crackdown on cartels. A second research strand investigates the innovative capacity of smaller firms, the problems they face in innovation and the role of outside assistance, especially in a regional context. I am founder editor (1994+) of the International Journal of the Economics of Business which presents original peer reviewed research in Economics that is applicable to business and related public policy issues. |
