Abstract

The paper is focused on the questions of regulation and natural monopolies. We intend to explain basic problems in this area of study, address different methods of regulation and describe their advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore the paper will focus on the sector of the Slovak economy which is subject to this form of regulation – the gas industry. We will explain the method of regulation used in this industry and describe its vertical structure and the development of different levels of the vertical chain. The final chapter will attempt to evaluate the effectiveness of the functioning of the regulation in the gas sector in Slovakia.
