Prof. Cox To Testify on Research Before U.S. Senate Committee

Professor Prentiss Cox will testify before the United States Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Technology on November 17, 2009. Cox will testify on his research and work related to preacquired account marketing, which occurs when a retailer or financial institution sells to marketing companies the right to charge customer financial accounts.

An article written by Cox on the subject will appear in the Harvard Journal on Legislation in 2010. The article was featured in TheConsumerist blog in October 2010 and is a Top Ten download in several categories on the Social Science REsearch Network (http://ssrn.com/abstract=1460963).
