Subsidizing R&D-Cooperatives

Hinloopen, Jeroen - Centre for Industrial Economics (CIE), Økonomisk Institut - 1997

A framework is developed with which both R&D-subsidies and R&D-cooperatives can be analyzed. It is shown that in most cases providing R&D-subsidies is more effective in promoting private R&D than allowing for an R&D-cooperative. Moreover, considering the implementation of both R&D stimulating...

Equilibrium downstream mark-up and upstream free entry

Pinopoulos, Ioannis N. - 2014

We consider a successive Cournot oligopoly model where firms freely enter into the upstream market. We show that, under specific conditions, a higher number of downstream firms can lead to a higher mark-up in the downstream market. Although downstream market power may increase, consumer prices...

Exclusive Dealing and Vertical Integration in Interlocking Relationships

Nocke, Volker; Rey, Patrick - Institut d'Économie Industrielle (IDEI), Toulouse … - 2014

We develop a model of interlocking bilateral relationships between upstream firms (manufacturers) that produce differentiated goods and downstream firms (retailers) that compete imperfectly for consumers. Contract offers and acceptance decisions are private information to the contracting...
