| Abstract: | The authors analyse the effect on agglomeration tendencies of allowing multi-region firms in a standard trade and location model, the core-periphery model developed by Kurgman. The introduction of horizontal multi-region firms mitigates the agglomeration effects found in the CP model by reducing the range of trade costs for which the core-periphery equilibrium occurs. The equilibrium is always asymmetric in spite of theunderlying symmetry of the model. |
