Title THE EFFECT OF SINGLE-FARE POLICY IN THE TAXICAB MARKET: THE CASE OF MOSCOW
Summary This paper examines the effect of single-fare policy in the taxicab market in Moscow. In order to address this question it estimates elasticity of demand and the welfare effect of the regulatory policy. It shows that there is strong price competition in the market and that the welfare change is not signicant.
This study finds no supportive arguments for price control.
