Private regulatory programs, such as certification schemes, seek to control market access by providing greater certainty about products' credence attributes, including sustainability features of production processes. This article contributes to the literature that assesses the verification processes that determine whether private rules are being followed sufficiently by applicant rule-targets (usually companies), and the regulatory intermediaries (auditors, assessors) that perform verification functions. By examining variation in the duration of verification processes of applicant rule-targets, we question the assumption that within the context of a given program's design the efficiency of the verification process is invariant across time and space. We argue that the verification process can impose hurdles that are independent of rule-targets' sustainability and their adherence to a private program's rules. Our analysis of 312 fisheries seeking Marine Stewardship Council certification shows that variation among intermediaries and objections to their certification decisions explain differences in the time it takes fisheries to receive market access.

私人监管计划,例如认证计划,试图通过对产品的可信属性(包括生产过程的可持续性特征)提供更大的确定性来控制市场准入。本文有助于评估验证过程的文献,这些验证过程确定申请人规则目标(通常是公司)和执行验证功能的监管中介(审计员、评估员)是否充分遵守了私人规则。通过检查申请人规则目标的验证过程持续时间的变化,我们质疑在给定程序设计的背景下验证过程的效率在时间和空间上是不变的假设。我们认为,验证过程可能会设置障碍,这些障碍与规则目标的可持续性及其对私人项目规则的遵守情况无关。我们对 312 家寻求海洋管理委员会认证的渔业的分析表明,中介机构之间的差异和对​​其认证决定的反对解释了渔业获得市场准入所需时间的差异。,私人监管计划,例如认证计划,试图通过对产品的可信属性(包括生产过程的可持续性特征)提供更大的确定性来控制市场准入。本文有助于评估验证过程的文献,这些验证过程确定申请人规则目标(通常是公司)和执行验证功能的监管中介(审计员、评估员)是否充分遵守了私人规则。通过检查申请人规则目标的验证过程持续时间的变化,我们质疑在给定程序设计的背景下验证过程的效率在时间和空间上是不变的假设。我们认为,验证过程可能会设置障碍,这些障碍与规则目标的可持续性及其对私人项目规则的遵守情况无关。我们对 312 家寻求海洋管理委员会认证的渔业的分析表明,中介机构之间的差异和对​​其认证决定的反对解释了渔业获得市场准入所需时间的差异。,私人监管计划,例如认证计划,试图通过对产品的可信属性(包括生产过程的可持续性特征)提供更大的确定性来控制市场准入。本文有助于评估验证过程的文献,这些验证过程确定申请人规则目标(通常是公司)和执行验证功能的监管中介(审计员、评估员)是否充分遵守了私人规则。通过检查申请人规则目标的验证过程持续时间的变化,我们质疑在给定程序设计的背景下验证过程的效率在时间和空间上是不变的假设。我们认为,验证过程可能会设置障碍,这些障碍与规则目标的可持续性及其对私人项目规则的遵守情况无关。我们对 312 家寻求海洋管理委员会认证的渔业的分析表明,中介机构之间的差异和对​​其认证决定的反对解释了渔业获得市场准入所需时间的差异。
