I understand how regulations increase costs. But increased costs can be recovered from in increased prices, decreased profits, or increased volume. I don’t see why it necessarily must be the first one, especially when these regulations often put a cap on fees.
removing regulations may not reduce fees, but adding new ones will almost certainly increase them, since they necessarily increase the overhead for the business.
