WORKING PAPER Spatial interactions in location decisions: Empirical evidence from a Bayesian spatial probit model
In the period from 2003-2011 in the Austrian retail gasoline market remarkable movements have been noticed. A short analysis shows that 10.9% of the stations had left the market and a percentage of 29.6% had either left the market or had changed the brand. This paper provides empirical insight for drivers of this process. A special characteristic of this market is the local competition structur...
متن کاملStrategic Clustering and Competition by Alcohol Retailers: An Empirical Analysis of Entry and Location Decisions
We develop and estimate a spatial game-theoretic model of entry and location choices to examine firms’ strategic clustering decisions. The model identifies two contradictory effects that determine firms’ geographical location choices: a competition effect and a clustering effect. We also separate firms’ strategic clustering incentives from the observed clustering behavior due to exogenous facto...
متن کاملStrategic Research Partnerships: Empirical Evidence from Asia

Japan is regarded as a forerunner in the practice of SRPs. In Japan, lack of spillover channels, limited opportunities for mergers and acquisitions, weak university research and pressure for internal diversification motivate firms to form...
متن کاملModeling strategic investment decisions in spatial markets
Markets for natural resources and commodities are often oligopolistic. In these markets, production capacities are key for strategic interaction between the oligopolists. We analyze how different market structures influence oligopolistic capacity investments and thereby affect supply, prices and rents in spatial natural resource markets using mathematical programing models. The models comprise ...
