| − | Problem definition is at the core of good policy analysis. Perhaps more importantly, it is at the core of good policy design and implementation. Without a complete understanding of the problems and opportunities we face as a society, it is impossible to design solutions that produce desired results. This is especially true when it comes to regulation. Regulators need to fully understand the dimensions of the problems they are entrusted to solve. They also need to identify and properly characterize opportunities for improvement within their jurisdiction.

| − | When faced with complex problems, it may be tempting to reach for standard regulatory approaches to design solutions. However, without fulsome analysis of the problem being addressed, there is a risk that the proposed regulations won’t achieve the intended outcomes. Problem definition is also critical to support analysis of whether existing regulations continue to be functional in solving the policy problem they were crafted to address.
