Past Collaboration Activities

Centre for Analysis of Risk and Regulation (CARR) London School of Economics

January 2019

CCRP is delighted to announce the commencement of its academic collaboration with the Centre for Analysis of Risk and Regulation at the LSE organising bi-annual Round Tables with the hosting alternating between the two institutions.

CARR is an interdisciplinary research centre; its core intellectual work focuses on the organisational and institutional settings for risk management and regulatory practices. In that sense the work of the two centres is complementary as CCRP’s core focus is the economic analysis of competition and regulatory policy. The director of CARR is Professor Martin Lodge. The first joint Roundtable took place in 14th March 2019 and was hosted at City.
