Lisa Stockley

With nearly a decade of managing, conducting, and communicating complex empirical analyses related to mergers and acquisitions, price fixing, and deceptive marketing—such as evaluating market definition and market power, competitive effects, and quantification of damages—Lisa has become an advisor praised by her clients for her sharp intellect, agility, and tireless commitment to excellence. Lisa primarily advises on Canadian files across a wide range of industries, including retail, agricultural commodities, platform services, electronic components, infrastructure, and consumer goods.

Lisa is a recognized expert at the intersection of competition and behavioural economics. Her interdisciplinary academic background includes training in qualitative research methods through anthropology, as well as hands-on experience in survey and experiment design and implementation, developed during her graduate studies in economics. Her research included a focus on systematic bias in decision-making, and her PhD dissertation—grounded in behavioural economics—examined how expectations alone can influence effort provision.

Lisa has advised on numerous deceptive marketing matters in both Canada and the United States, has been an invited speaker on the role of behavioural economics in antitrust enforcement, and has authored the overview of the economics of deceptive marketing for a forthcoming textbook on competition law in Canada.
