Endogenous Timing in a Mixed Oligopoly with Foreign Competitors: the Linear Demand Case
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce foreign private firms into the model of Pal (1998) and investigate the impact of the introduction of foreign private firms on the endogenous timing in a mixed oligopoly in the linear demand case. We find that the public firm chooses to be a follower of all domestic private firms and that the public firm chooses not to be a leader of all foreign private firms, which is in contrast to Matsumura (2003).

Oligopoly games with Local Monopolistic Approximation
We propose an oligopoly game where quantity setting firms have incomplete information about the demand function. At each time step they solve a profit maximization problem assuming a linear demand function and ignoring the effects of the competitors’ outputs. Despite such a rough approximation, that we call “Local Monopolistic Approximation” (LMA), the repeated game may converge at a Nash equil...
متن کاملPrivatization and Foreign Competition
This paper determines the equilibrium market structure in a mixed international oligopoly, where the state assets are sold at an auction. The model suggests that low greenÞeld costs and low trade costs induce foreign acquisitions. The intuition is that domestic Þrms can then not prevent foreign Þrms from becoming strong competitors and thus, their willingness to pay for the state assets is low....

متن کاملPrice Caps, Oligopoly, and Entry
This paper investigates the impact of price caps in oligopoly markets with endogenous entry. In the case of deterministic demand and constant marginal cost, reducing a price cap yields increased total output, consumer welfare, and total welfare. This result falls in line with classic results on price caps in monopoly markets, and with results in Earle, Schmedders and Tatur (2007) and Grimm and ...
متن کاملImpact of Participants’ Market Power and Transmission Constraints on GenCos’ Nash Equilibrium Point
Unlike perfect competitive markets, in oligopoly electricity markets due to strategic producers and transmission constraints GenCos may increase their own profit through strategic biddings. This paper investigates the problem of developing optimal bidding strategies of GenCos considering participants’ market power and transmission constraints. The problem is modeled as a bi-level optimizati...
