The Macroeconomic Effects of Legal- Simplification Programmes
註釋Legal simplification may improve the quality of institutions in industrialised countries that developed over-complex legal systems. In theory, this type of regulatory reform promotes economic efficiency, leading to higher levels of productivity and output. In this paper we use a Panel Factor-Augmented VAR approach to measure the long-run impact of legal-simplification programmes in total factor productivity. We identify shocks using data on regulatory quality and exploring qualitative information publicly available. The estimated long-run impact on total factor productivity of a typical programme is significant and about 0.6 per cent.
