Review of Network Economics, 2003, vol. 2, issue 4, 21

Abstract: This article provides a review and critique of the empirical literature that examines the effects of incentive regulation on retail telephone service quality in the United States. The literature provides mixed findings. Some dimensions of service quality appear to improve under incentive regulation (relative to rate of return regulation) while others deteriorate. Suggestions for much-needed future research are offered.
