The Interaction Between Credit and Labor Market Frictions

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I study a novel two‐way feedback between credit and labor market frictions. Running from credit to labor markets, amplitude in capital demand caused by collateral constraints spills over onto labor demand due to the complementarity of capital and labor; and, furthermore, credit frictions raise effective financial hiring costs, prompting firms ...

Assessing second‐price auctions for parcel exchanges in last‐mile logistics

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The rapid growth of e‐commerce has led to multiple carriers operating in the same regions, creating opportunities for collaboration. However, logistics companies typically operate independently, leading to inefficiencies. Horizontal cooperation, where carriers share resources and infrastructure, can improve efficiency and reduce costs.

We Value Your Privacy: Behavior‐Based Pricing Under Endogenous Privacy

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study a duopoly model of behavior‐based pricing in which consumers can either disclose or hide their data. We contrast two data policies. Under an open data policy, disclosed data is shared with all firms. In the unique equilibrium, all consumers disclose, and firms price discriminate, leading to welfare losses from inefficient poaching ...

Incentive and Signaling Effects of Bonus Payments: An Experiment in a Company

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Economists and management scholars have argued that the scope of incentives to increase cooperation in organizations is limited as their use may signal the prevalence of free‐riding among employees. This paper tests this hypothesis with an artefactual field experiment that assigns managers and employees from a large company to stylized roles ...

Evidence Gathering Under Competitive and Noncompetitive Rewards

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reward schemes may affect not only agents' effort but also their incentives to gather information in order to reduce the riskiness of the productive activity. In a laboratory experiment using a novel task, we find that the relationship between incentives and evidence gathering depends critically on the availability of information about peers ...

ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate the contracts offered by a large healthcare purchaser to health service providers. Contracts are based on the DRG principle that all hospitalizations in a diagnosis group are reimbursed at the same rate. This principle is relaxed in practice, as in several cases, the amount reimbursed within each DRG exhibits ...

Policy Biases in a Model with Labor‐Market Frictions

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We develop a model with labor‐market matching frictions that is subject to a range of shocks, including shocks to matching efficiency and bargaining power, and use the model to examine how monetary policy should respond to such shocks. We show that optimal monetary policy responds effectively to these shocks, producing economic outcomes that ...
