Information Sharing Networks in Oligopoly
We study the incentives of oligopolistic firms to share private information on demand parameters. Differently from previous studies, we consider bilateral sharing agreements, by which firms commit at the ex-ante stage to truthfully share information. We show that if signals are i.i.d., then pairwise stable networks of sharing agreements are either empty or made of fully connected components of ...
متن کاملRelationship Banking in Bilateral Oligopoly and Asymmetric Information
This paper investigates the economic principles underlying the relationship between the real sector (non-financial) and the banking sector structures.

Traditionally, the strong vertical relationship between core companies...

Rather, in many industries—including health care, technology, media, and finance—firms are oligopolistic and negotiate terms of trade with one another across different market segments. Understanding how firms compete and interact in these vertical markets is critical not only fo...
متن کاملA Theory of Bilateral Oligopoly∗
In horizontal mergers, concentration is often measured with the Hirschmann-Herfindahl Index (HHI). This index yields the price-cost margins in Cournot competition. In many modern merger cases, both buyers and sellers have market power, and indeed, the buyers and sellers may be the same set of firms. In such cases, the HHI is inapplicable. We develop an alternative theory that has similar data r...
متن کاملPerfect competition in an oligopoly ( including bilateral
We show that if limit orders are required to vary smoothly, then strategic (Nash) equilibria of the double auction mechanism yield competitive (Walras) allocations. It is not necessary to have competitors on any side of any market: smooth trading is a substitute for price wars. In particular, Nash equilibria are Walrasian even in a bilateral monopoly.
