Banded Rate of Return Regulation:
Specifies a range of returns that a regulated company is allowed to earn before profit or loss sharing sets in. This approach provides greater incentives to the company to keep costs down than a system that establishes caps on returns, since costs tend to drift up if all savings are immediately passed on to customers.
