The Determinants of Negotiated Pharmaceutical Prices
The Journal of Industrial Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We focus on the determinants of pharmaceutical drug prices. Using data from the Brazilian pharmaceutical market, we find large variations in drug prices across buyers, drug classes, and time periods. Our estimation results provide evidence that transaction‐specific determinants between buyers and sellers (e.g., transaction volume, buyer's ...

RPM and Vertical Integration With Upstream Competition and Noncontractible Efforts
The Journal of Industrial Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study RPM and vertical integration in a common agency setting with two differentiated manufacturers and one retailer, where consumer demand depends on both the manufacturers' and retailer's noncontractible efforts. Under vertical separation, the adoption of maximum RPM by both manufacturers is an equilibrium and intensifies competition ...

Nash Bargaining without Convexity
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2005 In this note I study Nash bargaining when the utility possibility set of the bargaining problem is non-convex. A simple variation of Nash's symmetry axiom is all that is necessary to establish a set valued version of Nash's solution in non-convex settings.

The Impact of TikTok on Elections: (Mis)information and Regulatory Challenges
Kyklos, EarlyView.ABSTRACT TikTok's algorithm‐driven feed is reshaping electoral communication, yet a clear understanding of its effects is lacking.

Proportional Nash solutions - A new and procedural analysis of nonconvex bargaining problems [PDF]
This paper studies the Nash solution to nonconvex bargaining problems. The Nash solution in such a context is typically multi-valued. We introduce a procedure to exclude some options recommended by the Nash solution. The procedure is based on the idea of
