Professional services are a key component of the EU internal market
economy yet also significantly challenge the legal framework
governing this internal market. Indeed, specific professional
regulatory structures, which are often the result of a blend of
government and self-regulation, hold clear potential for conflict
with EU free movement and competition law rules. Hence this book
looks at the manner in which both free movement and competition
laws might apply to such self- and co-regulatory set-ups, and at
the leeway given to quality considerations (apparently) conflicting
with free movement or competition objectives. In addition, since
court action will seldom suffice to genuinely integrate a market,
the book also explores those instruments of EU secondary
legislation that are likely to impact the most on the provision of
professional services. However, the book goes beyond a mere
inventory to ask how EU Internal Market policy could contribute to
the optimal legal environment for professional services. A law and
economics analysis is employed to investigate the need for specific
professional rules, the preferred type of regulator (self-, co- or
government regulation), and the level - national and/or European -
at which regulation should be adopted. As becomes clear, the story
of the market for professional services is one of market and
government failure; the author is thus left to compare imperfect
situations where market failures compete with rent-seeking efforts,
the tendency towards over-centralisation and national
protectionism. This book offers both an in-depth legal analysis of
the EU framework as it applies to professional services as well as
a more normative evaluation of this framework based on insights
from law and economics scholarship. It will therefore be a valuable
resource for all practitioners, policy-makers and academics dealing
with professional services, as well as, more generally, with
questions of quality and self-regulation.
