Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural monopolies exist in those markets in which demand can be satisfied at lowest cost by the output of only one rather than several competing firms. Under such conditions, conventional wisdom suggests that government regulation must substitute for competition to discipline the behavior of firms. Thirty years ago a young professor named Richard Posner asked the provocative question of whether the existence of natural monopoly provides adequate justification for government intervention. His even more provocative answer was no. The evils of natural monopoly are exaggerated, the effectiveness of regulation in controlling them is highly questionable, and regulation costs a great deal. "The resources and energies of government should be directed to problems we know are substantial, that we think are traceable to government action, and that cannot be left to the private sector to work out. There are plenty of those problems, and it is doubtful that natural monopoly is among them." Thirty years after its initial publication, read the original insights of Richard Posner about the regulation of natural monopoly as well as a new preface in which Posner reflects on the deregulation of industries that has occurred since 1969 and the possibilities for more deregulation in the future."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considered the cutting edge of microeconomic theory in the 1970s, natural monopoly research remains an active and fertile field. Policy makers and regulators have begun to implement entry and pricing policies that are based on theoretical and empirical analyses. This book develops a comprehensive framework for analyzing natural monopoly. The authors first present a historical overview of regulatory economics, followed by analyses of optimal pricing and investment for single- and multiproduct natural monopolies. Topics covered include cost and demand structures, efficiency impacts of linear and multipart pricing, peak-load pricing, capacity determination, and the sustainability of natural monopolies. After a survey and analysis of natural monopoly regulation in practice, the links between technological change and regulation are identified. The book concludes with a discussion of the alternatives to traditional regulation, including public ownership, franchise schemes, quality regulation, and new incentive systems. Throughout the book, issues from the telecommunications and energy industries are used to illustrate key points. Its integrated framework will make it useful to academic economists, regulatory analysts, business researchers, and advanced students of public utility economics.

Book excerpt: Competition policy debates on digital platform markets are often premised on the idea that market fragmentation and the standard forces of competition and entry may provide a potential solution to excessive concentration and market power. In this work, Francesco Ducci provides readers with a different perspective based on the theoretical lens of natural monopoly. Ducci explores this framework through the development of three case studies on horizontal search, e-commerce marketplaces, and ride-hailing platforms, investigating the strength and limit of potential (and often heterogeneous) sources of natural monopoly at play in each industry. Building on these case studies, the book then derives from the application of the natural monopoly framework general policy implications for digital industries by identifying the respective institutional flaws and shortcomings of ex ante and ex post approaches to market power as one of the central challenges in digital platform markets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Natural Monopoly A natural monopoly is a monopoly in an industry in which high infrastructural costs and other barriers to entry relative to the size of the market give the largest supplier in an industry, often the first supplier in a market, an overwhelming advantage over potential competitors. Specifically, an industry is a natural monopoly if the total cost of one firm, producing the total output, is lower than the total cost of two or more firms producing the entire production. In that case, it is very probable that a company (monopoly) or minimal number of companies (oligopoly) will form, providing all or most relevant products and/or services. This frequently occurs in industries where capital costs predominate, creating large economies of scale about the size of the market; examples include public utilities such as water services, electricity, telecommunications, mail, etc. Natural monopolies were recognized as potential sources of market failure as early as the 19th century; John Stuart Mill advocated government regulation to make them serve the public good.

Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - General, grade: 1,7, University of Applied Sciences Essen, course: VWL, language: English, abstract: This paper deals with the regulation of natural monopolies by the government. In general, regulation pursues the goal to guarantee equal opportunities within a market and to sustainably encourage competitive markets to the advantage of the consumer by affecting the conduct of the monopolist. A natural monopoly arises when a single firm is able to supply a good or service to an entire market at a lower cost than two or more firms. This failure of competition is the result of a specific market, in which variety of suppliers causes a decline of market output. For example this could happen when there are extremely high fixed costs, such as large-scale infrastructure needed to ensure supply (like cables and conductions regarding the telecommunications sector) and it is more efficient to only allow one firm to supply to the market. Allowing other firms entering the market would mean they had to duplicate all the fixed costs, which in turn states that competition would lead to inefficient duplication of resources. Usually, government intervention is necessary within natural monopolies, because in that case the existence of a monopoly is beneficial and efficient or even unavoidable, but negative effects, which could be a result of the position, need to be avoided. In a first step, this paper will refer to these negative effects, which can arise from a naturally monopolistic situation and lead to economic issues. Hence, you can conclude why natural monopolies need to get regulated. Subsequently, this paper will outline methods how to regulate a market, but due to the fact that there are many different opportunities, this paper will only refer to a few examples to give a small insight. In a final step, the paper will give an example of a current regulation system in Germany. In this case the regulation system will be the telecommunications sector. On the basis of this sector, it will be demonstrated if its regulation was successful and how the government tried to regulate the market.
