Lundin, Erik - 2025

I examine the pricing behavior of municipal and private firms in the unregulated Swedish district heating market, characterized by geographically bounded local monopoly networks. Conditional on exogenous cost factors, private firms charge on average seven percent higher prices compared to their...

The Natural Monopoly Paradox : Incumbent Inefficiency and Entry

Ennis, Sean F. - 2023

The underlying concept of a “natural” monopoly is that costs for a given output are minimized when one firm produces that output. This paper shows that a paradox arises for certain infrastructure and delivery products satisfying widely accepted technical criteria for such monopolies: Under...

Adverse Selection and (un)Natural Monopoly in Insurance Markets

Kong, Edward; Layton, Timothy; Shepard, Mark - 2024

Adverse selection is a classic market failure known to limit or "unravel"' trade in high-quality insurance and many other economic settings. While the standard theory emphasizes quality distortions, we argue that selection has another big-picture implication: it unravels competition among...

How to auction an essential facility when underhand integration is possible

Engel, Eduardo; Fischer, Ronald; Galetovic P., Alexander - 2002

Regulating seaports is difficult in general, even more so for the weak regulatory institutions common in developing countries. For this reason some countries have awarded these facilities via Demsetz auctions, to the port operator that bids the lowest cargo-handling fee. A major concern with...

Transportation networks, such as railways, roads and highways provide standard examples of natural monopolies. Since the introduction of the term “natural monopoly” by T. Malthus in 1815, this concept has been defined in different ways by several authors (F. Bastiat, J. S. Mill or L....

This paper considers the efficiency of a contestable natural monopoly if consumers are heterogeneous and the monopolist can differentiate prices imperfectly. With restricted entry, the standard result in this case is that the monopoly offers a menu of price-quantity combinations which leads to...

OPEX-risk as a source of CAPEX-bias in monopoly regulation

Brunekreeft, Gert; Rammerstorfer, Margarethe - 2020

This paper shows with a formal model that under monopoly regulation, OPEX-risk can be a source for a CAPEX-bias. If OPEX and CAPEX are substitutes, the regulated firm can reduce the risk of the firm and thereby reduce the true cost of capital by rebalancing OPEX and CAPEX. If the allowed...
