The underlying premise is that any system for regulating economic activities consists of a set of rules that use punishment and incentives to induce economic agents to adopt certain behaviors. Since agent behavior governs market behavior to at least some extent, market performance will depend on the structure of existing regulations. Consequently, any evaluation of the adequacy of a given regulatory system depends upon the definition of the systems objectives.
