Investor Protection – Why Gower is Wrong
In: Economic affairs: journal of the Institute of Economic Affairs, Band 4, Heft 4, S. 50-52
ISSN: 1468-0270

Furthermore, his proposals restrict competition that would benefit the consumer without outlawing restrictive practices. Norman Tebbit should reject Professor Gower's misguided advice decisively.
