The Nobel prize committee announced the $1.1 million prize in Stockholm to Jean Tirole.It called Mr.Tirole “one of the most influential economists of our time”．The organization said he had done important research in a number of areas.But it saide，France.He is 61 years old.For about 30 years，Mr.Tirole has researched periods when markets failed，that is，when they did not provide good results in price and competition.He looked at how a small number of large companies，or even a single company，can strongly influence industries.Banking and telecommunications were among the industries he studied. The Nobel committee said that unregulated markets often produce socially undesirable results.They can result in higher prices or companies that use their market position to block others.The committee said it chose Mr.Tirole because he thought about how best to regulate markets.For example，Tore Ellingsen，Chairman of the committee that awards the economics prize，says Mr.Tirole showed the need to develop better rules for the banking industry.This became urgent after the world financial crisis of 2008－2009.rst presented in 1969. |
