On Synergies and Vertical Integration
Schmitz, Patrick; Sliwka, Dirk - University of Bonn, Germany - 1999
We analyze in an incomplete contracts model whether a supplier should be integrated if in addition to his investment …-integration leads to higher investment incentives, potential synergies are foregone. Hence, integration can be optimal even though only … the supplier makes an investment decision. This may also yield some insights for the discussion on which activities belong …
