| Illicit Trade: Challenges and Solutions | 10 Nov 2021 | 01:00:25 | |
Webinar held online on Illicit Trade: Challenges and Solutions, November 10th, 2021. Speakers:
Illicit trade is a severe and growing threat to our societies. Through smuggling and counterfeit products, governments and legal businesses are being undermined, and consumers are being exposed to poorly made and unregulated products. A 2021 report by Brand Finance concluded that brands help in the fight against illicit trade, and that brand protection is key to ensuring consumers have access to safe and credible products. At the same time, illicit trade is a complex, multi-layered issue, and should be analysed through multiple lenses. During the webinar, we will focus on the current challenges posed by illicit trade, and existing opportunities for intervention. We will also examine marketing and branding restrictions to see how those affect illicit trade.

| Kansas Has Work to Do Before Electric Vehicles Take Off | Elizabeth Hicks on NPR | 06 Jul 2021 | 00:00:35 | |
HAYS, Kan. (KNS) - President Biden recently pitched a $174 billion plan to electrify transportation nationwide, including $15 billion for new vehicle charging stations. But a new analysis says Kansas has some work to do to before it's ready for an electric vehicle revolution. The U.S. Electric Vehicle Accessibility Index puts Kansas tied for dead last in a ranking of how easy states make it to buy electric vehicles. Elizabeth Hicks, an author of the Consumer Choice Center index, points to a law the state Legislature passed in 2019 that increased electric vehicle registration fees to $100...more than twice as much as gasoline vehicles. She says the law intends to recoup money the state will lose in gas taxes but puts an unfair burden on those car owners. “So unfortunately, we're seeing these electric vehicle consumers being punished by doing exactly what the gas tax intended, which was to use less gas," she said. Hicks also points out that Kansas law prevents people from buying electric vehicles directly from companies like Tesla, which doesn’t have a dealership in the state.
