| Abstract: | This paper studies optimal incentive contracts with limited commitments, and with agents having multiple tasks and career concerns (here as: c-crns). The agent's c-crns. are determined by the outside market. It is shown that the principal (as: p-pal.) might be willing to give the strongest explicit incentives to agents far from retirement to account for the fact that c-crns. might induce behaviour in conflict with the p-pal's preferences. In addition, it also is shown that maximized welfare might be decreasing in the strength of c-crns. |
