In econometrics, there are many environments which require nonseparable modeling of a structural disturbance. In this setting, the case of possibly endogenous regressors has been studied recently. Regarding this literature, key assumptions to obtain identi fication and estimation results are: Valid...

In Economics individuals are modeled by their immutable preferences over stochastic streams of (physical and abstract) commodity bundles, consumed/experienced by themselves and others. Moreover, the stochastic process by which past and current choices affect future constraints and period-by-period...

This paper studies the effect of non-exclusive competition on liquidity provision in a generic financial intermediation setting. We introduce non-exclusive contracting to the baseline model in Holmstrom and Tirole (1998). In this baseline setting, a firm needs to obtain a share of its...

The optimal managerial compensation contract is characterized in an environment in which the manager influences the distribution of earnings through an unobservable effort decision. Actual earnings, when realized, are private information observed only by the manager, who may engage in the costly...

Classic models of reputation consider an agent taking costly actions to affect a single, homogeneous audience’s beliefs about his ability, preferences or other characteristic. However, in many economic settings, agents must maintain a reputation with multiple parties with diverse interests. In this...

Patents award innovators a fixed term of market exclusivity. Yet, since in many industries firms file patents at the time of discovery ("invention") rather than first sale ("commercialization"), fixed patent terms can generate variation in effective patent lengths. We present a simple model...

We build a model to study optimal land use, encompassing land use activi- ties, pollution and climate change. This benchmark set-up allows us to identify the spatial drivers behind the interaction between land use and the environment. Pollution generates local and global damages since it ows...
