Multimarket linkages, cartel discipline and trade costs

Agnosteva, Delina; Syropoulos, Constantinos; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2017

We build a model of tacit collusion between firms that operate in multiple markets to study the effects of trade costs. A key feature of the model is that cartel discipline is endogenous. Thus, markets that appear segmented are strategically linked via the incentive compatibility constraint....

Short run gravity

Anderson, James E.; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2017

Short run gravity is a geometric weighted average of long run gravity and bilateral capacity. The model features (i) joint trade costs endogenous to bilateral volumes, (ii) long run gravity as a limiting case of effcient investment in bilateral capacities, (iii) a structural ratio of short run...

Heterogeneous economic integration agreement effects

Baier, Scott L.; Bergstrand, Jeffrey H.; Clance, Matthew W. - 2015

Gravity equations have been used for more than 50 years to estimate ex post the partial effects of trade costs on international trade flows, and the well-known - and traditionally presumed exogenous - "trade-cost elasticity" plays a central role in computing general equilibrium trade-flow and...

Estimating the effects of nondiscriminatory trade policies within structural gravity models

Heid, Benedikt; Larch, Mario; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2017

We propose a simple method to identify the effects of unilateral and non-discriminatory trade policies on bilateral trade within a theoretically-consistent empirical gravity model. Specifically, we argue that structural gravity estimations should be performed with data that include not only...

GVCs and the endogenous geography of RTAs

Fontagné, Lionel; Santoni, Gianluca - 2018

Geography, economic size, or common history, help predicting signed regional trade agreements (RTAs). However, not all signed RTAs are "natural" according to economic determinants. En-dogeneity and general equilibrium effects of RTAS are the two mechanisms addressed in this paper. We estimate...

Institutions, trade and development : a quantitative analysis

Beverelli, Cosimo; Keck, Alexander; Larch, Mario; … - 2018

We propose and apply methods to quantify the impact of national institutions on international trade and development. We are able to identify the direct impact of country-specific institutions on international trade within the structural gravity framework. Our approach naturally addresses the...

The determinants of trade costs : a random coefficients approach

Egger, Peter; Průša, Jan - 2014

This paper assesses whether the sensitivity of bilateral trade volumes to various trade cost factors is constant or varies across countries. It utilizes a random coeffcients model and analyses a cross-sectional sample of bilateral trade data for 96 countries in 2005. We expect the elasticity of...
