Location decision of heterogeneous multinational firms
In this paper we examine how multinational rms with varied levels of total factor productivity (TFP) self-select into di¤erent host countries. Using a dataset that records the subsidiaries of French manufacturing multinationals, we nd that rm-level TFP plays an important role in explaining the sorting of French rms across host countries. Both the aggregateand rm-level estimates suggest tha...
متن کاملSpatial Competition with Heterogeneous Firms
I model endogenous horizontal and vertical product differentiation with arbitrarily many heterogeneous firms. Firms are asymmetric in that they differ in their marginal costs. I prove that under an equilibrium refinement, all economically relevant firm outcomes are uniquely determined across all strict subgame perfect Nash equilibria. There are two central results. First, a firm’s price, market...
متن کاملThe spatial selection of heterogeneous firms
We show that heterogeneous firms choose different locations in respond to market integration. Specifically, decreasing trade costs lead to the gradual agglomeration of efficient firms in the larger country where they have access to a bigger pool of consumers. In contrast, high-cost firms seek protection against competition from efficient firms by locating in the smaller country. However, when t...
متن کاملSpatial Price Discrimination with Heterogeneous Firms*
In this paper we aim to explain intuitively heterogeneous firms’ optimal location decisions in a simple spatial market. To do so, we present and solve a four-stage game of entry, location, pricing and consumption in a spatial price discrimination framework with arbitrarily many heterogeneous firms. We provide a unique equilibrium outcome without imposing restrictions on the distribution of marg...
متن کاملHeterogeneous Preferences and Location Choice with Multi-product Firms
This paper investigates whether the principle of minimum differentiation extends to the location choices of multi-product firms of different sizes supplying differentiated goods to consumers with heterogeneous tastes. Our analysis explicitly allows for the possibility that the resulting location equilibria will be asymmetric, and we compare the multiproduct equilibria with the location configur...
