摘要
Existing studies on the competitive effects of overlapping ownership usually take the products sold by the firms as given. This paper focuses on the firms' incentive for product innovation in a vertically differentiated market. We find that overlapping ownership, while reducing the low-quality firm's incentive to improve product quality, can raise the high-quality firm's. The degree of vertical differentiation is higher, but consumer and social welfare may increase compared with the case of independent ownership.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
