The reality is not so. People change their mind all the time, they have limited knowledge, and computational power is a scarce resource. In other words, they are bounded rational. If regulation and other initiatives are based on strict rationality, the purpose of the introduced measures is not likely to be fulfilled.
The article explores how insights from behavioural economic can benefit business law, in particular company and capital market law. In doing so, the article accounts for the systematic deviations from the standard model that characterise bounded rationality and what the consequences of this are for future regulation. Also, the article addresses the different purposes pursued using behavioural insights and the means to do so as well as the criticism that behavioural insights have faced. The article discusses various ways to ‘debias’ or ‘boost’ cognitive competences, and finishes by suggesting a potential behavioural strategy for Danish business law.
Den neoklassiske økonomis arketype ‘homo economicus’, der besidder fuldkommen rationalitet (strict rationality), har ikke blot øvet indflydelse på økonomisk teori, men denne rationalitetsform har også haft en afsmittende virkning på den juridiske disciplin, for eksempel den erhvervsretslige regulering. I henhold til dette rationalitetsbegreb, der kan betegnes som den traditionelle økonomiske teoris standardmodel, er mennesker fuldkommen rationelle. Det betyder blandt andet, at de har adgang til fuld information, har stabile præferencer, træffer en beslutning ud fra et sæt givne og kendte alternativer og udelukkende vælger det beslutningsalternativ, der maksimerer deres nytte. | | Del av verk: | Nordisk tidsskrift for Selskabsret 2-3/2020 |
