This paper tries to find an answer to the question of why has Finnish exports performed so poorly during the last two decades. It also tries to assess the related question of why is the level of openness of the Finnish economy much lower than in neighboring countries and countries with similar...

Die Arbeitsgruppe Erneuerbare Energien-Statistik (AGEE-Stat) bilanziert im Auftrag des Bundesministeriums für Wirtschaft und ⁠Klimaschutz⁠ (BMWK) regelmäßig die Nutzung der erneuerbaren Energien in Deutschland. Jährlich erstellt die AGEE-Stat in diesem Rahmen eine erste amtliche...

This study explores the impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on the product market power by examining listed firms on the Taiwan Stock Exchange and Taipei Exchange from 2005 to 2017. We use CSR awards as a social responsibility indicator, and the results show a positive relationship...

We revisit the debate on the role of technological improvement and market share reallocation in determining aggregate productivity gains. Contrary to previous work that neglects dependencies between suppliers in global value chains, we explicitly account for input linkages that impact both...

This paper explores the relationship between exchange rate pass-through and market share for monopolistically competitive exporters. Under fairly general assumptions we show that pass-through should be high for exporters based in a country with a very large share of total destination market...

Merger policy is the most active area of U.S. antitrust policy. It is now widely believed that merger policy must move beyond its traditional focus on static efficiency to account for innovation and address dynamic efficiency. Innovation can fundamentally affect merger analysis in two ways....

Although Indonesia has necessary infrastructure to support Islamic banking industry, after 30 years of its establishment, market share of this industry is relatively small, around 6.5% of total market share of banking Industry. This study aims to explore strategies that need to be undertaken and...

In this paper we study the link between central bank asset purchases and the repo market, to examine the impact of the Eurosystem’s increased footprint in financial markets resulting from the response to the Covid-19 crisis. To do so, we exploit different highly granular data on government...

It is naturally expected that a listed parent company which depends on the profits from its listed subsidiaries should mirror the activities of listed subsidiaries as far as the market share price is concerned. Persistent stunted market share price growth for a material listed subsidiary would...

Der Ausbruch der Corona-Pandemie zu Beginn des Jahres 2020 beendete die längste Wachstumsphase der Wirtschaft im wiedervereinten Deutschland. Schon die erste Welle der Corona-Krise bedeutet einen großen Einschnitt in die Geschäftstätigkeit vieler Betriebe in Deutschland, etwa zwei Drittel...

This paper identifies and quantifies major determinants of future electric vehicle (EV) demand in order to inform widely-held aspirations for market growth. Our model compares three channels that will affect EV market share in the United States from 2020-2035: intrinsic (no-subsidy) EV demand...

This paper develops a framework to systematically study how changes in market conditions affect the equilibrium inequality between heterogeneous agents. By stating our setting as a "competition for market shares", we can derive inequality predictions for vastly different competition models. This...

In competitive marketing, the speed of generating the best price has become as critical as its reliability. In this study, we aim to design a practical marketing management tool. We consider a non-cooperative marketing environment with multiple substitute products, where total market size is...

The paper considers a duopoly model in which firms inherited asymmetric market shares and history-based price discrimination is viable. However, firms can identify only a share of their own consumers depending to the degree of information accuracy. We derive the pricing strategies and we analyze...

This article proposes a new formulation of constant market share (CMS) trade analysis inspired by the statistical principles supporting revealed comparative advantages (RCA). This novel approach is methodologically consistent and rooted in information theory. It also avoids the discrete-form...

Nominal rigidities due to menu costs have become a standard element in closed economy macroeconomic modeling. The 'New Open Economy Macroeconomics' literature has investigated the implications of nominal rigidities in an open economy context and found that the currency in which prices are set...

As the world is getting further digitized it has become crucial to be up to date with current trends to ensure better survival. In fact, in order for organizations to survive among competitors, updating has become necessary. With this change, an impact has been created upon almost every industry...

Applied researchers most often estimate the demand for differentiated products assuming that at most one item can be purchased. Yet simultaneous multiple purchases are pervasive. Ignoring the interdependence among multiple purchases can lead to erroneous counterfactuals, in particular, because...

We examine the joint effect of average default risk and uncertainty on behavior of rating agencies. We find when average default risk rises in the economy standards weaken but a simultaneous increase in uncertainty’ causes the standards to tighten more. The net effect is the documented...

Devising well-behaved constant market share decomposition indices has been the pursuit of many researchers since the 1950s. This article proposes a new formulation of constant market share (CMS) trade analysis inspired by the statistical principles supporting revealed comparative advantages...

We examine how emission taxes should be refunded to firms in order to create optimal incentives to invest in cleaner technologies. Since refunds cannot be made dependent on investments, an alternative way is to give back taxes to firms according to market shares. We show that universally...

Exploiting several highly granular datasets, we compute Italy's goods export market shares at a 5-digit sector of economic activity level over 2010–19 to identify the "market-share gainer" and "loser" sectors in world markets over the past decade, and "stable" sectors, identified residually....

This paper examines the use of market-share thresholds (safe harbors) in evaluating whether a given vertical practice should be challenged. Such thresholds are typically found in vertical restraints guidelines (e.g., the 2000 Guidelines for the European Commission and the 1985 Guidelines for the...

Managed care may affect medical treatments for non-managed-care patients if it alters local market structure or physician behavior. We investigate whether higher levels of overall managed care market share are associated with greater use of recommended therapies for fee-for-service patients with...

The U.S. residential energy storage market grew rapidly during 2017–20, driven by homeowners seeking to increase resiliency, changes in net metering programs, and the financial benefits of installing a system. The residential energy storage system (ESS) market was dominated by Tesla in 2020...

Effective capital decisions not only increase the operational efficiency of businesses but also is strategic to bring the enterprise's competitive advantages to the market. Using an appropriate debt ratio helps businesses to strike a balance between internal and external resources to compete...

We investigate pricing to market when the exchange rate changes in cases where firms' future demands depend on their current market shares. We show that i) profit maximizing foreign firms may either raise or lower their domestic currency export prices when the domestic exchange rate appreciates...

This paper generalizes the frequently used Hotelling model for two-sided markets in order to determine the equilibrium market shares. We show that advertisement levels depend neither on the media price nor on the location of the media firm. An increase in advertising revenues does not change...
