Licensing resource exploitation with endogenous and privately known reserves

Jääskeläinen, Jarmo; Lappi, Pauli - 2026

We design optimal mechanism to collect revenues from nonrenewable resource exploitation, when the resource must be explored and discovered and when there is asymmetric information. The exploration effort may result in a discovery that is revealed only to the firm, and the effort is not observed...

Celic, Gorkem; Strausz, Roland - 2026

Is it a lie if I donʼt know? : mechanisms and mitigation of dishonesty under ignorance$Sven A. Simon

Simon, Sven Arne - 2026

Ignorance of facts and laws may provide an excuse for self-serving reporting behavior, even at the risk of telling the untruth. This paper examines what decision-makers report when they do not know their true entitlement to a financial gain, why they do so, and how the resulting dilemma under...

The demand for economic narratives

Blesse, Sebastian; Gründler, Klaus; Heil, Philipp; … - 2025

Economic narratives are pervasive in the public discourse and can shape individual behavior. But so far we know very little about whether households actually demand and value narratives as information. We combine a comprehensive expert survey with a large-scale nationally representative...

Informative certification : screening vs. acquisition

Gorkem, Celik; Strausz, Roland - 2025

We study monopolistic certification in a buyer-seller relationship, explicitly distinguishing between its role as a device for screening versus acquisition. As a screening device, certification discloses soft information about a seller's private information. As an acquistion device,...
