Abstract
I am going to briefly outline this morning a study that London Economics, in association with the PricewaterhouseCoopers International Survey Unit, undertook for DG Information Society, and which was completed about a year ago.1 I am also going to discuss some of the reactions to the study, and to briefly describe some ongoing research in this area.

Other research, using the same OECD regulatory index across a number of sectors has also suggested that across these sectors regulation has been influencing investment levels. See Alesina, A. et al.
