R&D spillovers through RJV cooperation
Banal-Estañol, Albert; Duso, Tomaso; Seldeslachts, Jo; … - 2020
We investigate the dimensions through which R&D spillovers are propagated across firms via cooperation through Research Joint Ventures (RJVs). We build on the framework developed by Bloom et al. (2013) which considers the opposing effects of technology spillovers and product market rivalry, and...

Technology, market structure and the gains from trade
Impullitti, Giammario; Licandro, Omar; Rendahl, Pontus - 2021
We study the gains from trade in a model with oligopolistic competition, heterogeneous firms and innovation, and provide a formula to decompose the mechanism. The new insight we provide is that market concentration can be a welfare-relevant feature of market power above and beyond markup...

Mergers, investment decisions and internal organisation
Banal-Estañol, Albert; Macho-Stadler, Inés; … - 2003
We analyse the effects of investment decisions and firms internal organisation on the efficiency and stability of ….

These mergers lead … to lower total welfare, suggesting that a regulator should be careful in assuming that possible efficiency gains of a …

Upstream horizontal mergers and efficiency gains
Milliou, Chrysovalantou; Pavlou, Apostolis - 2009
We study upstream horizontal mergers and their potential efficiency gains. We show that an upstream horizontal merger … can give rise to two efficiency-enhancing effects when firms trade through two-part tariffs. It increases R&D investments … efficiency gains can overcome its anti-competitive effects in terms of welfare, we show that when firms merge usually both of the …

On the choice of royalty rule to cover fixed costs in input joint ventures
Fjell, Kenneth; Foros, Oystein; Kind, Hans Jarle - 2013
In a model where two competing downstream firms establish an input joint venture (JV), we analyze how different royalty rules for covering fixed costs affect channel profits. Under running royalties (regardless of whether based on predicted or actual output), the downstream firms ́perceived...
