Petroleum revenue management in Ghana: The epoch of high expectation in perspective

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Development Law and Policy (The), 2019
The avoidance of resource curse is, in part, dependent on the management and administration of realized revenue from the exploration of its natural resource. This article evaluates the existing fiscal regime and the regulatory frameworks that Ghana established to manage its petroleum revenue from 2010 to 2013.

Multi-Unit Auctions and Competition Stricture [PDF]

open access: yes
Is it better for a seller who wants to auction multiple units to face many small bidders or few large bidders? Since multi-unit auction models usually have many equilibria, there are no theoretical predictions on the impact of the competition structure ...
