| Asiasana: | BUSINESS INFORMATION INFORMATION TRANSFER MERGERS VERTICAL INTEGRATION |
| Kieli: | eng |
| Tiivistelmä: | Suppose that rival downstream producers of final good contract with the same upstream supplier of an input and, in the process, reveal private information. A vertical merger between the upstream supplier and one of the downstream firms may dissipate the information advantage of the remaining downstream firms. The welfare consequences of such a merger and related information sharing depend on the value of information, the benefits of integration apart from information sharing, and the nature of upstream competition. |
