To assess the impact of taxation on the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) most economic studies using household data consider the average consumer. Individual consumption is, however, very heterogeneous. In this paper, we propose a three-step methodology to evaluate the impact of SSB...

To what extent and with what effect do owners of standard-essential patents (SEPs) “hold-up” companies that produce standard-compliant products? To explore this question, we construct measures of opportunistic patent licensing behaviors using detailed information collected from the dockets of U.S....

Nonparametric inference on tail conditional quantiles and their least squares analogs, expectiles, remains limited to i.i.d. data. Expectiles are themselves quan- tiles of a transformation of the underlying distribution. We develop a fully operational kernel-based inferential theory for extreme...

Using Baltagi and Li’s (2002) semi-parametric panel fixed effects model, this article investigates the effect of board gender diversity (BGD) on a firm’s environmental performance (EP) in a sample of firms from the 2020 Fortune 1000 Index over the 2004–2020 period. We address the endogeneity issue...

We study the design of environmental policy in the e-commerce sector and examine two main questions. First, what is the appropriate “level” of intervention along the value chain. Second, which instruments should be used at a specific level in the vertical chain? We consider a model with two...
