Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The regulation of franchise deals aims to protect prospective franchisees from dishonest franchisors, ensuring transparency and fair dealing. In this case, Otis is the prospective franchisee, and the regulations would be in place to safeguard his interests. While there may be some restrictions on anticompetitive agreements, this is not the primary purpose of franchise regulation. Similarly, while franchisors may benefit from the protection offered by these regulations, this is not their primary purpose either. Finally, the government's ability to restrict freedom of contract is not directly related to franchise regulation.
