J Kastl - Review of Economic Studies, forthcoming, 2006 - evan.lunarmania.com
Abstract I examine a model of a uniform price auction of a perfectly divisible good with
private information in which the bidders submit discrete bidpoints, and hence step functions,
rather than continuous downward sloping demand functions. I prove equilibrium existence ...
In this paper we study European banks' demand for short-term funds (liquidity) during the
summer 2007 subprime market crisis. We use bidding data from the European Central
Bank's auctions for one-week loans, their main channel of monetary policy implementation ...

Abstract I analyze a model of a private value divisible good auction with different payment
rules, standard rationing rule pro-rata on-the-margin and both with and without a restriction
on the number of bids (steps) bidders can submit. I provide characterization of equilibrium ...

Abstract I examine a model of a uniform price auction of a perfectly divisible good with
private information in which the bidders submit discrete bidpoints rather than continuous

Abstract We use data from the Italian manufacturing industry to document the positive
relationship between delegation of decisions within organizations and innovation incentives.
In order to obtain the causal effect, we build a contract theory model with asymmetric ...
Abstract We exploit a unique feature of data from Canadian treasury bill auctions, in which
some bidders have information about rivals' bids, to develop a test if values are private.
Information about a rival's bid causes a bidder to bid differently when she has a private ...

Abstract We develop a test for common values in auctions in which some bidders possess
information about rivals' bids. Information about a rival's bid causes a bidder to bid differently
when she has a private value than when her value depends on rivals' information. In a ...

Several important auction settings, including treasury auctions in Canada and the US, have
the feature that some bidders (dealers) observe the bids of a subset of other bidders
(customers). Quantifying the economic advantage that informationally advantaged bidders ...

Abstract Delegation of decision-making has important implications for firms' performance.
We build a simple model predicting that decentralized firms are more involved in R&D, and
use data from the Italian manufacturing industry to document a positive correlation ...

Abstract In this paper we try to answer the following question: Why do we observe vertical
structures? The usual justification for vertical organization is that the agents (retailers or
dealers) posses better knowledge of the relevant retail market, thus they can better sell the ...

Abstract We develop a test for common values in auctions in which some bidders possess
information about rivals' bids. Information about a rival's bid causes a bidder to bid differently
when she has a private value than when her value depends on rivals' information. In a ...

Abstract The German firm of Siemens and Halske introduced many enterprising features of
what later came to be known as welfare capitalism in the mid-nineteenth century. Profit
sharing, annual bonuses, a pension fund, a reduction in work hours, and an annual party ...

Abstract We study a specific model of competing manufacturer-retailer pairs where adverse
selection and moral hazard are coupled with non-market externalities at the downstream
level. In this simple framework we show that a “laissezfaire” approach towards vertical ...

Abstract: In the first part of this dissertation I examine a model of a divisible good auction with
private values from theoretical and empirical perspective, with emphasis on discreteness of
bidding which is a central part of most multiunit auctions in practice. Chapter 1 offers an ...

Abstract: This paper explores the reliability of using prices of credit default swap contracts
(CDS) as indicators of default probabilities during the 2007/2008 financial crisis. We use
data from the Canadian financial system to show that these publicly available risk ...

We study a model of competing manufacturer/retailer pairs where adverse selection and
moral hazard are coupled with promotional externalities at the downstream level. In contrast
to earlier models mainly focusing on a bilateral monopoly setting, we show that with ...

Abstract This paper shows that strategies in, and reliance on the payments system as well as
special liquiditysupplying tools provided by the central bank are important indicators of
distress of individual banks. We conclude that central banks can benefit from using high- ...

This paper points out that vertical delegation, implemented through the design of quantity
discount contracts, may allow upstream producers, as well as downstream retailers, to
achieve profits higher than those obtained under vertical integration or contracts based on ...
Abstract We study the sudden change in bidding behavior in primary auctions of liquidity run
by the European Central Bank which followed the spillover of the subprime market crisis in
August 2007 to the EURO area. A direct analysis of changes in the bidding patterns ...
