Medientyp: E-Artikel Titel: The Effects of Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) Regulation on Company Management and Competitiveness Beteiligte: Daddi, Tiberio; Giacomo, Maria Rosa De; Testa, Francesco; Frey, Marco; Iraldo, Fabio Erschienen: Wiley, 2014 Erschienen in: Business Strategy and the Environment Sprache: Englisch DOI: 10.1002/bse.1797 ISSN: 0964-4733; 1099-0836 Entstehung: Anmerkungen: Beschreibung: <jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title><jats:p>In the literature there are several studies about the effects of environmental policies and regulations on the management and competitiveness of businesses. Some of these studies focus on the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) Directive, but only a few investigate the effects of IPPC permits in depth. This paper aims to bridge this gap by illustrating the results of cross‐country empirical research. We analyse 225 IPPC permits of companies located in seven European regions and issued by different competent authorities.</jats:p><jats:p>Results show differences in terms of requirements, emission limit values and monitoring frequencies, which are not always justifiable by the flexibility afforded by the Directive. These differences have different impacts on the competitive strategies and environmental management of companies within the same sector but located in different countries. We explore how some differences could influence company costs, contributing to the literature debate about the effects of direct regulation on competitiveness.
