A Simplified Framework to Simulate the Impact of a Merger

Gupta, Sudip - In: Review of Market Integration 3 (2011) 1, pp. 1-20

In this expository article we describe the proportional calibration technique to simulate the potential impact of an association (merger) in a differentiated product price competitive industry. The procedure is forward-looking and implementable with minimal data and computational requirement. We...

Merger Simulation in a Two-Sided Market: The Case of the Dutch Daily Newspapers

Filistrucchi, Lapo; Klein, Tobias; Michielsen, Thomas - NET Institute - 2010

We develop a structural econometric framework that allows us to simulate the effects of mergers among two-sided platforms selling differentiated products. We apply the proposed methodology to the Dutch newspaper industry. Our structural model encompasses demands for differentiated products on...
