RPI - X definition

RPI - X is a means of controlling the extent to which companies with monopoly power raise their prices. The RPI - X control prevents regulated companies from increasing their prices or revenue by more than general price inflation (as measured by the Retail Price Index, or RPI), less an X value determined by the regulator, over a specified period. The control protects consumers, by preventing companies with monopoly power from abusing that power through price increases.
