Exploiting the adoption of the Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Budget Trading Program (NBP) across US states as an exogenous shock, we find that firms with NOx‐emitting plants subject to the NBP are more likely to engage in M&As, particularly through vertical ...

Strategic Stake Acquisitions in Rival Firms: Common vs. Cross‐Ownership
ABSTRACT We study how a blockholder who controls a firm should acquire a minority stake in a rival: directly, creating common ownership, or indirectly through the controlled firm, creating cross‐ownership. Common ownership generates stronger internalization of competitive externalities and allows the blockholder to capture the resulting gains without ...

Cyber(in)security and Interoperability in Digital Services
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the interplay between interoperability and the incentives to invest in cybersecurity in digital markets. We develop a two‐sided symmetric duopoly model in which cyberattacks create a congestion‐like externality, and interoperability amplifies hackers' incentives to target connected platforms.
