Strategic Capacity Investment Under Uncertainty
Contrary to most of the papers in the literature of investment under uncertainty we study models that not only capture the timing, but also the size of the investment. We consider a monopoly setting as well as a duopoly setting and compare the results with the standard models in which the firms do not have the capacity choice. Our main results are the following. First, for low uncertainty value...
متن کاملInvestment in Information in Petroleum, Real Options and Revelation
A firm owns the investment rights over one undeveloped oilfield with technical uncertainties on the size and quality of the reserve. In addition, the long run expected oil price follows a stochastic process. The firm needs to select the best alternative of investment in information with different costs and different revelation powers. The modeling of technical uncertainty uses the practical con...
متن کاملStrategic investment under uncertainty: A synthesis
Research contributions providing insights at the intersection of real options analysis and industrial organization have become numerous in the recent decade. In the present paper, we provide an overview aimed at categorizing and relating these research streams. We highlight managerial insights about the type of competitive reaction, the manner in which information is revealed, the nature of the...
متن کاملInvestment Timing Under Incomplete Information
We study the decision of when to invest in an indivisible project whose value is perfectly observable but driven by a parameter that is unknown to the decision maker ex ante. This problem is equivalent to an optimal stopping problem for a bivariate Markov process. Using filtering and martingale techniques, we show that the optimal investment region is characterised by a continuous and non-decre...
متن کاملOptimal investment under partial information
We consider the problem of maximizing terminal utility in a model where asset prices are driven by Wiener processes, but where the various rates of returns are allowed to be arbitrary semimartingales. The only information available to the investor is the one generated by the asset prices and, in particular, the return processes cannot be observed directly. This leads to an optimal control probl...
