Collusion through Joint R&D: An Empirical Assessment
Duso, Tomaso; Roeller, Lars-Hendrik; Seldeslachts, Jo - Tinbergen Instituut - 2010
This paper tests whether upstream R&D cooperation leads to downstream collusion. We consider an oligopolistic setting where firms enter in research joint ventures (RJVs) to lower production costs or coordinate on collusion in the product market. We show that a sufficient condition for...
