Book Description
In recent years, the substantial expansion in containerisation, the advent of megacarriers, the race for ever larger container-ships and higher-volume flows, have revolutionised intercontinental transport. These changes have entailed considerable reductions in maritime transport costs, which has made distant countries extremely accessible. The most costly component of the international traffic transport chain is now the inland leg, which explains why forwarders are so keen to gain control over inland transport operations. On land, road is the dominant mode, but with infrastructure congestion.

Report of the One Hundred and Twenty Ninth Round Table on Transport Economics Held in Paris on 13th -14th May 2004 on the Following Topic : Transport Services, the Limits of (de)regulation

Pages : 180
Book Description
While deregulation and privatization in the transport sector have led to increases in productivity in general, not all reform hopes have materialized. In particular, the reform of the provision of infrastructure services has not caused the expected mobilization of private resources, and concession relations have been less stable and less efficiency-enhancing than expected. In view of current discussions of reform results, the Round Table focused on the following issues: Where are the limits for deregulation? The discussion identified the conditions under which competition and potential competition can be expected to work. More care has to be applied to single out the transport sub-sectors where these conditions hold. Which are the crucial factors that necessitate regulation? Many parts of the transport sector are fraught with indivisibilities, network economies, sector specific assets or lack of resale markets for investment goods. Where these factors play an important role, regulation might improve the efficiency of the transport system. What is the role of the transaction costs of regulation? The neglect of (surrogate) market transaction costs, in particular in the case of vertical disintegration, has led to lower than expected benefits from the reforms. What is the cost of regulation? Regulatory policies have to take account of the information asymmetries between the actors involved. Monitoring and control costs have often prohibited the depoliticizing of regulatory processes. The Round Tale discussed to what extent a rule-bound, performance-based regulation could contain the friction resulting from discretionary regulatory powers.
