Overlapping Ownership, R&D Spillovers, and Antitrust Policy
Open accessAbstract
This paper considers cost-reducing R&D investment with spillovers in a Cournot oligopoly with overlapping ownership.We show that overlapping ownership leads to internalization of rivals' profits by firms and find that, for demand not too convex, increases in overlapping ownership increase (decrease) R&D and output for high (low) enough spillovers while they increase R&D but decrease output for intermediate levels of spillovers.There is scope for overlapping ownership to improve welfare and consumer surplus, provided that spillovers are sufficiently large.The results obtained are robust when R&D has commitment value and in a Bertrand oligopoly model with product differentiation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
