Pure competition is the best for our economy. Pure competition is a term that explains more
about a wide range of competitors who sell the same products. In pure competition here are a
variety of companies that are in competition with each other. There are similar share of the
market between all firms and no monopolies in a pure competition model. In pure competition
the items sold in all firms are all identical. The market price of products cannot be influenced by
the firms. The buyers have the complete information of products about the prices thar firms
charge. In pure competition the firms do not incur any cost while exiting or entering the market.
Pure competition is best for the economy because of several reasons. One of the many benefits of
pure competition is that capitalism is rampant. This means that the environment is not involved
in the firm business affairs. The government leaves the firms to run their course while the
entrepreneurs are not restrained by endless rules, red tape, regulations and unfair taxation. The
second benefit of pure competition is that resources are allocated with the utmost efficiency. All
information is available. The opportunity costs is covered by the normal profits while the
products that consumers get are standardized despite of where a product is purchased. The
advertisement expense for perfect competition is very low since the products involved are
homogeneous. The sales of products are bound to happen automatically without any huge
publicity or advertisement expense. In pure competition the prices of a product are fixed by the
supply mechanism and demand. The consumers are free to buy products from a different trader if
one charges higher therefore fulfilling their requirements at prices that are lower.
Self-regulation of the market is the process through which the organizations or people control a
process or activity that they are involved in outside the government. Several industries such as
health care, fashion, mining, professional sports, higher education, advertising, marine r and
nuclear power have governed their industries using self -regulatory processes. Self-regulation is
an important part of the global economy of today. It is important for controlling the practices of
an industry. Self- regulation is more advantageous for businesses because the savings that are
incurred are passed to consumers. Monitoring, remediation, enforcement and rule -making
processes are way faster using self- regulation. There are different ways in which consumers
benefit from self-regulation.
There several benefits of self-regulation. One of the reasons for self -regulation is to help raise
the standards of the industry. Self-regulation enhances compliance with regulations and
understanding. This is because it is a means of exceeding legal requirements in a minimum way.
In a place where there is continued competition there is a continued urge to improve the
standards of the industry therefore gaining market share. Raising the standards of an industry
also helps deal with poor reputation of a business. Self -regulation also increases the level of
information of services and products. By providing more information about a product, the
businesses are able to boost the confidence of consumers. Self- regulation is also used when
introducing a new technology to an industry. The self-regulatory options that are available to an
industry include information campaign, service charters, quality assurance systems, standards,
dispute and codes resolution schemes, functional and institutional codes and dispute resolution.
