The present paper examines the use of information provision financed by the revenues of existing environmental taxation in the case of products that generate damages to the consumers of these products as well as an environmental externality. We show that when information provision is used alone...

The joint evolution of participation and compliance of farmers in a public VA, along with the evolution of the pollution stock is examined. Replica- tor dynamics, modeling participation and compliance, are combined with pollution stock dynamics. Fast-slow selection dynamics are used to capture...

Farming activity is modeled under an intervention policy regime, combining the environmental requirements of the Council Nitrates Directive (91/676/EEC) and the compensatory provisions of the second pillar of the Common Agricul- tural Policy. The optimizing behavioural rule along with the...

The vast majority of research related to optimal asset allocation strategies in the presence of transaction costs, requires formulation of highly sophisticated numerical schemes for the estimation of no-transaction bands; moreover, the optimization objectives examined are far less compared to...

This article examines a tracking problem, similar to the one presented in Pliska and Suzuki (Quantitative Finance, 2004): an investor would keep constant proportions of her wealth in different assets if markets were frictionless; however, in the presence of fixed and proportional transaction...

The paper discusses the design of optimal regulatory policies under an alternative analytical framework of unbounded and bounded rationality, by considering the mechanism that provides the type of the optimal CAP instruments that ensure the collective attainment of a social environmental target,...

This paper studies the problem of a company which expands its stochastic production capacity in irreversible investments by purchasing capital and faces both fixed and proportional costs. The objective of the company is to find optimal production decisions to maximize its expected total net...

The paper analyzes resource management that entails the irreversible development of an exhaustible resource when the values of services generated by the resource in either the developed or the undeveloped state are uncertain. An exercise barrier approach is used to derive the privately - optimal...

This paper investigates the effect of the government’s ability to commit, or not, to a specific level of environmental policy instrument, or environmental innovation and welfare in imperfectly competitive markets. We that under monopoly if the government is unable to commit, and follows thus a...
