The Panel report in EC-Biotech, for the time being, puts an end to one of the most complex cases in the history of WTO dispute settlement. The analysis at hand covers the issues relevant beyond the realms of biotechnology, namely the impact of non-WTO rules of public international law on the interpretation of WTO law. the scope of the SPS Agreement, the categories "undue delay" and "insufficient scientific evidence" in connection with precautionary measures, and product-origin as a criterion for the national-treatment obligation. On the one hand, some of the criticism raised against the Panel report turns out to be unjustified. It is, on the other hand, a deficiency of the Panel report that some parts of it do not foster legal clarity.

Several competition authorities have accused petrol retailers of engaging in collusive conduct, which results in alleged "excessive" prices as well as simultaneous price setting across filling stations. However, petrol retailers must exert a substantial amount of market power if they are to dampen competition. Therefore, we propose a method within the spirit of the New-Empirical-Industrial-Organisation, which allows estimating market power held by petrol retailers in terms of a conduct parameter. Based on data for Switzerland, our empirical results suggest a low level of market power held by Swiss petrol retailers.

This paper examines the structure of remittances originating from Switzerland. We find that while Switzerland is reported to be the third largest source of remittances worldwide, the vast majority of these outflows are wages earned by non-resident commuters from France, Italy and Germany. We further estimate that two-thirds of the remittances made by immigrants resident in Switzerland flow to European countries with high per capita income. These findings suggest that the development impact of is negligible compared to that of other major source countries. [PUB ABSTRACT]
