An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Pass the Price Gouging Prevention Act (S. 3803 / H.R. 7390

1,047 so far! Help us get to 2,000 signers!

Of all the responses to the economic upheavals of the pandemic, price gouging has got to be one of the most egregious. This is when prices go up, or continue to stay high, not due to market pressures or other economic factors, but only because the seller, renter, or provider wants to increase their already excessive profits.

Some CEOs have even bragged to their shareholders about how much their profit-making pricing strategies exceed their inflationary increases in production costs.

To fight back against what they call “greedflation,” Senator Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Jan Schakowsky have reintroduced their Price Gouging Prevention Act (S. 3803 / H.R. 7390) and are now seeking co-sponsors for the bills.

As your constituent, I would like to urge you to co-sponsor and pass this bill. It has several important features: It will prohibit price gouging on a nationwide basis; it will take aim at companies that have taken advantage of the pandemic to jack up prices unnecessarily and keep them up; it will focus on companies whose executives brag to shareholders about increasing prices faster than inflationary costs; it will require public disclosure of companies’ costs and pricing strategies, and it will increase the FTC’s funding to enforce these conditions.

Thank you for considering co-sponsoring the Price Gouging Prevention Act.

FCA: A Look at the UK’s Financial Watchdog from Its London Headquarters

A snapshot of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) headquarters in London offers more than just a glimpse of corporate architecture—it symbolizes the core of financial regulation in the UK. As the primary body overseeing financial markets, services, and firms, the FCA plays a pivotal role in maintaining trust and integrity within the industry.

Located in the heart of London’s financial district, the FCA’s signage is a familiar sight to anyone working in finance. But beyond the brick-and-mortar presence lies a powerful mission: to protect consumers, promote healthy competition, and uphold the stability of the financial system.

Narasi TKDN dalam Kisah iPhone

Pemblokiran penjualan iPhone 16 di Indonesia karena tidak memenuhi Tingkat Komponen Dalam Negeri (TKDN) minimal 35% telah memicu diskusi hangat di tengah masyarakat Indonesia, terutama kalangan pengguna setia produk ikonik ini. Kebijakan TKDN, yang dirancang untuk meningkatkan kandungan lokal pada perangkat 4G dan 5G ini, bertujuan mengurangi ketergantungan pada produk impor sambil mendukung pertumbuhan industri dalam negeri. Namun, keputusan ini membawa implikasi dari berbagai sudut pandang—regulator, konsumen, industri lokal, hingga Apple sebagai perusahaan terdampak.

Beranjak dari konsep-konsep kunci pemikiran Daniel Kahneman yang tertuang dalam "Thinking, Fast and Slow", diantaranya dual system thinking, framing effect, prospect theory, dan anchoring bias, kita dapat mencoba menggali lebih dalam dan memahami sudut pandang masing-masing pihak tersebut terhadap penetapan kebijakan ini.

Perspektif Regulator: Kebijakan dalam Kerangka Pemikiran Strategis

Dalam konteks dual system thinking Daniel Kahneman, regulator Indonesia menyusun kebijakan TKDN dengan pendekatan System 2, yakni pemikiran yang lebih lambat, mendalam dan penuh pertimbangan untuk dampak jangka panjang. Dalam kerangka berpikir ini, regulator merancang kebijakan dengan end state untuk memperkuat kemandirian ekonomi melalui optimalisasi kandungan lokal.

Regulator Indonesia juga memandang kebijakan TKDN sebagai instrumen penting untuk menstimulus optimisme industri lokal. Penerapan framing effect—mekanisme penyampaian informasi agar dapat dipahami audiens dengan cara tertentu—diharapkan dapat memposisikan kebijakan TKDN sebagai langkah positif untuk ekonomi lokal, bukan hanya sebagai sekadar kebijakan populis pembatasan produk asing.

Perspektif Konsumen: Reaksi Emosional & Pembatasan Akses

Dari kacamata konsumen, larangan ini menimbulkan reaksi emosional yang didorong oleh System 1, yaitu pola pikir cepat dan intuitif, kebalikan dari System 2 dalam konteks dual system thinking. Respons konsumen terhadap larangan iPhone lebih berbasis perasaan emosional karena kehilangan akses ke produk favorit.

Dalam prospect theory, konsep loss aversion menunjukkan adanya asimetri emosi dimana manusia lebih condong merasakan dampak negatif dari kehilangan dibandingkan kepuasan atas keberadaan suatu benefit yang sebanding. Ditambah dengan availability heuristic, yaitu kecenderungan untuk senantiasa terkenang pengalaman positif kala menggunakan suatu produk (dhi. Apple), konsumen menjadi lebih sulit menerima produk lain sebagai alternatif pilihan.

Tantangan Apple: Menavigasi Standar Lokal dalam Konteks Efisiensi Global

Bagi Apple, kebijakan TKDN mengharuskan perusahaan untuk menyeimbangkan antara permintaan pasar, kepentingan setempat, standar lokal dan efisiensi global. Rantai pasok Apple terpusat di pabrik Foxconn di Taiwan, yang menjadi pusat distribusi global. Memindahkan sebagian produksi ke Indonesia bukanlah langkah mudah, mengingat potensi biaya dan risiko yang tinggi. Hambatan ini mencerminkan anchoring bias—kecenderungan mempertahankan standar atau “jangkar” yang sudah mapan. Standar global Apple yang kuat membuat mereka sulit mengikuti requirement kebijakan TKDN tanpa mengorbankan efisiensi yang mereka andalkan.

Perspektif Industri Lokal: Peluang di Balik Tantangan

Bagi industri lokal, kebijakan TKDN menciptakan peluang untuk mengisi kekosongan pasar yang sebelumnya diisi produk impor. Dengan standar TKDN sebagai jangkar baru, diharapkan industri lokal mampu meningkatkan kualitas dan daya saing produk agar memenuhi preferensi pasar domestik. Namun, ada tantangan kompetensi yang harus diatasi.

Industri lokal juga perlu menghindari overconfidence bias—kecenderungan merasa terlalu percaya diri akan kemampuan sendiri. Terkadang, pelaku industri mengira kebijakan TKDN akan otomatis menjamin keberhasilan mereka di pasar. Namun, tanpa peningkatan kualitas dan inovasi, produk lokal mungkin belum dapat bersaing dengan merek global yang telah mapan. Jika overconfidence bias ini tidak dikelola, peluang pasar dapat terlewatkan.

Untuk dapat bersaing secara kompetitif, peningkatan standar produksi dan efisiensi sangat dibutuhkan. Langkah ini mencakup inovasi desain, pelatihan tenaga kerja, serta investasi dalam teknologi dan riset pasar. Dengan mengatasi tantangan ini, industri lokal bisa lebih siap memenuhi permintaan pasar dengan produk berkualitas tinggi yang relevan bagi konsumen.

Menavigasi Bias Menuju Pasar yang Berimbang

Melalui perspektif yang beragam ini, kita dapat melihat bahwa regulator, konsumen, industri, dan Apple merespons kebijakan TKDN sesuai pendekatan masing-masing. Kebijakan ini sebaiknya tetap mengedepankan keseimbangan antara akses pasar bagi konsumen, pertumbuhan industri lokal, dan kepatuhan perusahaan asing. Dengan memahami berbagai bias kognitif ini, kebijakan TKDN diharapkan dapat menciptakan lingkungan pasar yang mendukung penguatan kapasitas serta pertumbuhan ekonomi dalam negeri sekaligus menjaga keragaman pilihan bagi konsumen.

An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Stop trying to defund the DOJ antitrust division!

843 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!

I’m writing to urge you to provide enforcement agencies with the resources they need to rein in corporate lawbreaking. Alongside the FTC, the Department of Justice Antitrust Division plays a critical role in holding illegal, monopolistic behavior accountable. Despite this important responsibility, the Division has long been deprived of the resources it needs to police anti-competitive behavior. This is why I am alarmed by proposed appropriations language released this week that would unravel the Merger Filing Fee Modernization Act enacted by Congress in 2022. I am adamantly opposed to this and all efforts to undermine the Division’s budget and urge all parties in negotiations to restore the Division’s full access to merger filing fees. While Congress has made little progress on antitrust priorities in recent years, the passage of the Merger Filing Fees Modernization Act was a bright spot and represented an important bipartisan success in supporting antitrust policy and enforcement. And it was a welcome departure from recent decades, in which Congress failed to give the Antitrust Division adequate resources to combat monopolistic actors even as corporate concentration sharply increased. As noted by Jonathan Kanter, Assistant Attorney General for the Antitrust Division, the Division employed some 230 fewer staffers as of February 2023 than it had in 1979. Despite insufficient resources, the DOJ Antitrust Division has still worked tirelessly to rein in anti-competitive behavior across a variety of sectors, including airlines, publishing and the tech sector. At a time when American consumers are reeling from high prices, it should be a bipartisan priority to promote competition and prevent monopolistic behavior. American consumers need relief from unconstrained corporate concentration, and it would be a major mistake for Congress to roll back progress on reinvigorating antitrust enforcement. I once again urge the White House and congressional lawmakers to stand in opposition to the proposed appropriations text and accompanying conference report, and enhance funding for antitrust enforcers to do their jobs. Thanks.

🚨💥 Breaking News in the Crypto World! 💥🚨 The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has thrown some serious shade at the USD-stablecoin market, calling out inaccuracies in its portrayal. 😱 In their recent report from October 2023, the SEC pointed fingers, suggesting that our beloved stablecoins might not be as stable as we think. Yikes! 💸 Stakeholders are now on high alert, wrestling with the implications of possible regulatory reviews. Will we see tightened rules that put a chokehold on our dollar-pegged darlings? 🤔 Gary Gensler, the SEC Chair, highlighted that “a fixed-price, unlimited mint-redeem structure helps maintain market price stability but poses significant systemic risks in the absence of federal oversight.” Sounds like a fun ride, huh? 🎢 As the crypto community buzzes with a mix of skepticism and practicality, analysts are keenly analyzing potential impacts and debating how these regulatory shadows could shape our trading landscape. Is this the end for USD-stablecoins, or are they just entering a new phase of regulatory adolescence? 🌱 Let’s discuss! Read the full breakdown on Kanalcoin and prepare for the market shakeup! Stay informed, stay skeptical, and always hodl! 🔒🤑 #CryptoNews #USDStablecoins #SEC #MarketRegulations #InvestSmart
