Capture theory of regulation is a theory that explains agency established to regulate an industry for the benefit of society acts in the opposite to promote the benefit of the industry.

Regulatory capture is an economic theory which asserts that regulatory agencies may come to be dominated by the industries or interests they are charged with regulating.
