Debt Renegotiation With Incomplete Contract
A debt contract usually does not include a provision about renegotiation. The right to seize the borrower’s asset and the rules of this process are usually stipulated in the contract. Such a promise not to renegotiate is not credible since renegotiation can mitigate the dead-weight loss of liquidating insolvent borrowers. Once the initial contract may not consider the renegotiation procedure an...
متن کاملContract Renegotiation and Options in Agency Problems
This article discusses the ability of an agent and a principal to achieve the first-best outcome when the agent invests in an asset that has greater value if owned by the principal than by the agent. When contracts can be renegotiated, a well-known danger is that the principal can hold up the agent, undermining the agent’s investment incentives. We begin by identifying a countervailing effect: ...
متن کاملRenegotiation-proof contract in repeated agency
Renegotiation-proof contracts are studied in infinitely repeated principal-agent problem. Contracts satisfying a weaker notion of renegotiation-proofness always exist. The renegotiation-proof value function has a simple characterization: It is the principal’s optimal value function when an appropriate lower bound is placed on the agent’s expected utility. Sufficient conditions are provided for ...
متن کاملRenegotiation and the Dynamics of Contract Design
Besides sunk costs and reputation, long-term contracts are an important form of commitment. In fact, in the imaginary world of Arrow-Debreu there is no room for other forms of commitment than the fully contingent longterm contract. At the risk of oversimplification, one could describe a large part of the theoretical research effort of the past three decades as a systematic attempt at understand...
متن کاملHow to Contract Ontologies
The dynamic nature of knowledge development has motivated the formal study of ontology evolution problems. In this paper, we study ontology contraction—the problem of retracting information that is no longer considered to hold. Our prime interest is to focus on ontologies expressed in Description Logics DL-Lite and EL, which underpin the OWL 2 QL and OWL 2 EL profiles. Our goal is to understand...
