Online Gambling Regulation
Thu, Nov 16, 2006
Will Federal Banking Regulations Force Online Casinos to Fold?
Until recently, online casinos operated outside of the reach of the United States Government. Now, in an innovative effort at law making, Congress has charged banks and other financial institutions with preventing the operation of online casinos in the US market. By requiring banks to shun transactions from gambling sites, Congress hopes to cut off the interaction between sites and their customers on US soil. Whether this will be successful is unknown. This discussion will explore what the new regulations will do to both the banking and gaming industries. More importantly it will examine whether this is an appropriate and acceptable form of law enforcement. Will this law overburden banks by making them the agents of the federal government, or will it be an easy to incorporate standard that will make banks more secure? Should online gambling be outright prohibited in the United States or should Congress merely regulate and tax this activity? These and many other questions will be explored during the lecture.
Speakers include:
Steve Verdier, Senior Vice President and Director of Congressional Relations Group for the Independent Community Bankers of America
Houman Shadab, Senior Research Fellow, Mercatus Center Regulatory Studies Program
Michael Borden, Office of Congressman Jim Leach
Moderated by: Gavin Young, Counsel for the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Anticompetitive Barriers to E-Commerce: Ken Starr Keynote

Anticompetitive Barriers to E-Commerce
A Symposium Presented by: the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, the George Mason University School of Law, and
The Journal of Law, Economics, and Policy
Featuring Keynote Speaker: Kenneth Starr, Dean, Pepperdine University School of Law
Business-to-consumer e-commerce is one of the fastest growing business sectors in the American economy. As a result, industry-specific economic regulations, occupational licensing, franchising laws, and a variety of other practices are now under challenge from a new direction. High-profile lawsuits and policy battles involving e-commerce have occurred in industries as diverse as automobiles, wine, caskets, real estate, and contact lenses. In some cases, the bricks-and-mortar incumbents have responded by lobbying for laws or regulations that would protect them from Internet-based competition. Innovation in e-commerce is also calling into question many established policies that generally protect incumbents from new entrants - often in-state interests from out-of-state interests.
In light of these developments, court cases and Federal Trade Commission hearings have revealed that there is a paucity of economic and legal analysis focused on legal and regulatory barriers to e-commerce.
To explore these new issues, and to stimulate research in this area, the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, in collaboration with the George Mason University School of Law, is holding a day-long symposium to allow prominent legal and economic scholars to present papers on topics such as: the current status of legal and regulatory barriers, their impact on consumers, their implications for competitive federalism, and more...
The papers from this symposium will be published in a special issue of the The Journal of Law, Economics & Policy.

The Sarbanes Oxley Act: An Efficient Solution to a Public Problem?
M ,
on, Apr 10, 2006
The Journal of Law, Economics, & Policy (JLEP)
at George Mason University School of Law is pleased to present a panel discussion entitled:
"The Sarbanes Oxley Act: An Efficient Solution to a Public Problem?"
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act was passed in response to the Enron and WorldCom corporate scandals, which shook investor's faith in the stock market. Fundamentally, the Act was an effort to establish mandatory corporate governance and accounting standards applicable to all public companies in order for them to enjoy the benefits of the public's confidence and investment. Now, several years after the passage of this legislation, we have solid data to evaluate the law's effectiveness, the cost of compliance, as well as the benefits that have accrued to the investing public. This lecture will focus on the effects of the legislation, both intended and unintended, with a focus on Section 404, the internal-controls provision, and the policies of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).
Distinguished Panelists Include::
Mr. Gerald Laporte, Chief, Office of Small Business Policy, Division of Corporation Finance, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
Mr. Michael See, Assistant Chief Counsel, Office of Advocacy, U.S. Small Business Administration
Mr. John Berlau, Fellow in Economic Policy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute
Moderated by: Kristina M. Husar, 3rd Year Law Student at George Mason University and member of the Journal of Law, Economics, and Policy.
