International Coordination of Quality Standards and Vertical Product Differentiation
I study the influence of minimum quality standards in a partial-equilibrium model of vertical product differentiation and trade in which duopolistic firms face quality-dependent costs and compete in quality and price in two segmented markets.

متن کاملDynamic Text-Based Industries and Endogenous Product Differentiation
We study how firms differ from their competitors using new dynamic measures of product differentiation based on novel text-based analysis of 50,673 product descriptions from firm 10-K statements filed yearly with the Securities Exchange Commission. This year-by-year set of product differentiation measures allows us to generate a set of dynamic industries and new measures of industry structure a...
متن کاملText-Based Network Industries and Endogenous Product Differentiation
All us We study how firms differ from their competitors using new time-varying measures of product similarity based on text-based analysis of firm 10-K product descriptions. This year-by-year set of product similarity measures allows us to generate a new set of industries in which firms can have their own distinct set of competitors. Our new sets of competitors explain specific discussion of hi...
