As part of the ARC CSR team, Lev also develops CSR reports for corporate entities based on widely used international standards (GRI, LBG, GHGP), and acts as a consultant in matters of sustainability.

His area of expertise includes anti-counterfeiting, consumer behavior, research methods, program evaluation, corporate social responsibility and public policy. His main research interests are intellectual property, product counterfeiting, cue utilization by consumers and law enforcement in the detection of counterfeit products, the harmful effects of product counterfeiting on the global economy and public health. He is also interested in the development of public policy aimed at deterring the manufacturing and marketing, as well as of the consumption of fake goods.
