Tiivistelmä: | This paper presents a model of a monopolist's voluntary overcompliance with legal environmental standards under asymmetric information about the firm's environmental impacts. The key assumptions are: the existence of quality premia for environmental soundness, a positive but imperfect degree of monitoring, and adaptive consumer expectations. Conditions necessary for overcompliance to arise in a profit-maximizing equilibrium are derived. |
