Cross‐Ownership and Endogenous R&D Risk in Cournot Triopoly
The Manchester School, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine how cross‐ownership influences firms' endogenous R&D risk‐taking in a Cournot triopoly, where two “insider” firms hold passive equity stakes in each other, and a third firm remains unaffiliated. Firms invest in stochastic R&D that lowers marginal costs and choose their risk level—measured by outcome variance—prior to quantity ...

Strategic delegation and risk‐taking in R&D: Partial delegation versus full delegation
International Journal of Economic Theory, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 183-207, June 2026.Abstract We examine firm's risk‐taking decisions in R&D under two different delegation strategies between partial delegation (PD) and full delegation (FD): FD authorizes both quantity and R&D risk but PD only authorizes quantity. Cournot firms under the FD set higher profit weights at the expected value of cost realization, which can lessen competition,

Strategic environmental corporate social responsibility in a vertically differentiated duopoly
International Journal of Economic Theory, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 214-236, June 2026.Abstract We investigate firms' strategic incentives to adopt environmental corporate social responsibility (ECSR) in the presence of quality–cost differences within a vertically differentiated duopoly. We find that (i) the low‐quality firm chooses a higher (lower) ECSR level than the high‐quality firm when the low‐quality firm has a relatively more ...

Asymmetric Information With Multiple Risks: The Case of the Chilean Private Health Insurance Market
Health Economics, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 712-729, May 2026.ABSTRACT We extend the Rothshild and Stiglitz (1976) model to two sources of risk –inpatient and outpatient risk– to better proxy real‐world health insurance markets. We uncover an interesting theoretical possibility: Take individuals A and B, who are low risks in, say, the inpatient dimension but A is riskier in the outpatient dimension.

Chinese Journal of Population Resources and Environment, 2017 ABSTRACTThis paper analyzes how the foreign penetration affects China’s environment policy in a mixed oligopoly framework, and gets several interesting conclusions.

Privatization and Government's Preference under Mixed Oligopoly: A Generalization [PDF]
In this paper, we generalize Kato's (Economics Bulletin, 2008) model by allowing many private firms in the mixed oligopoly setting, rather than the mixed duopoly framework of Kato (2008).

Spatial price competition and buyer power in the U.S. beef packing industry
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 771-798, May 2026.Abstract We develop a spatially‐explicit model of the U.S. beef packing industry to study key questions related to competition in an oligopsony setting. Cattle supplies are modeled at the county level, and packing plants' location, capacity, and ownership are taken as given. Packers procure negotiated cattle by competing in prices in each local (county)
