This book discusses how global budgets relate to competitive cost-control strategies.

This study examines the effect of existing regulations on US pharmaceutical firms. The author explores the indirect spillovers from the regulatory use of international price comparisons and the threat from parallel trade, concluding that competition promises more efficiency and incentives.

The authors demonstrate how regulation intended to control costs can exacerbate cost growth by subsidizing high-risk activities and firms at the expense of low-risk activities and firms.
