Guy Mor (Hebrew: גיא מור) is a regulatory policy and risk management expert.
The reforms he led, the tools he developed, and the government guides he authored are the professional foundation on which the Israeli regulatory system operates.
Guy Mor serves as Deputy Director General of the Israel Regulatory Authority (Hebrew: רשות האסדרה) in the Prime Minister's Office, responsible for shaping regulatory policy at the whole-of-government level across all sectors of the economy. He has worked in regulation from every angle – as a lawyer facing regulators, as a senior regulator, and as someone who shapes Israel's regulatory policy today.
In the private sector, Mor represented companies and organizations before regulators and government authorities. In civil society, he advanced public initiatives and advocacy campaigns for policy change.
Within government, Mor established and led a regulatory policy unit, and served as a senior regulator responsible for setting fire safety requirements for buildings, businesses, and infrastructure nationwide.
Over more than a decade, he was at the junctures that shaped Israel's regulatory policy, leading dozens of reforms that saved the public billions of USD.
These include: conducting Israel's first Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA); the five-year program to reduce regulatory burdens; the business licensing reform; reforms across fields as varied as imports, standardization, food safety, occupational licensing, consumer protection, planning and construction; the adoption of international standards in fire safety regulation; and the enactment of the Regulation Principles Law, 2021 (Hebrew: חוק עקרונות האסדרה) and the establishment of the Israel Regulatory Authority.
Mor authored the mandatory government Regulatory Impact Assessment Guidelines (Hebrew: המדריך הממשלתי לגיבוש רגולציה) and the Guide to Risk Management in Regulation and Public Policy (Hebrew: המדריך לניהול סיכונים ברגולציה ובמדיניות ציבורית), including the methodology for risk-based regulatory supervision and enforcement.
The frameworks and tools he developed have been adopted across government, becoming standard professional practice – some enshrined in legislation and government decisions.
Alongside the reforms, Mor has built infrastructure and practical tools for regulators – tools that support their day-to-day work and remove obstacles that impede it. He developed methodologies and training programs attended by over 400 regulators, and is responsible for the establishment of the Unified Regulation Database (Hebrew: מאגר האסדרה), a single digital repository publishing all of Israel's regulation, including laws, secondary legislation, and administrative procedures.
On the international stage, Mor is Israel's representative to the OECD Regulatory Policy Committee (RPC) and a member of its Bureau, the committee's steering body. He participates in international trade agreement negotiations with other countries on regulatory matters.
He advised the World Bank and OECD member states on the development of cross-cutting regulatory reforms, including strategy formulation, detailed policy papers, and professional workshops.
Mor publishes in leading academic journals in Israel and internationally, teaches a graduate course in regulatory policy and public risk management at Reichman University, and has taught "Policy Analysis" at the School of Public Policy at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He holds an LL.B. and an LL.M. from Tel Aviv University.
