The potentially corrupting power of lobbying has been a central element of recent elections around the World. From politicians running on a promise to “drain the swamp” to citizens protesting against free trade agreements citing the influence of lobbyists, popular discontent with the influence of special interests is rising.

The panel will also discuss possible regulatory best practices as well as why lobbying regulation is in the best interest of governments, citizens as well as lobbyists.
