Is there a level of competition intensity that maximizes investment in the mobile telecommunications industry?
Houngbonon, Georges Vivien; Jeanjean, Francois - 2014 - Preliminary version
This paper empirically assesses the impact of the intensity of competition on investment in new technologies within the … mobile telecommunications industry. Using firm level panel data and an instrumental variable estimation it finds an inverted …-U relationship between competition intensity and investment. The intermediate level of competition intensity that maximizes …
