Title: State Aid and Tacit Collusion Author(s): BERTSCH, Christoph; CALCAGNO, Claudio A.; LE QUEMENT, Mark Date: 2009 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: State Aid to Attract FDI and the European Competition Policy: Should Variable Cost Aid Be Banned? Author(s): MARINIELLO, Mario Date: 2006 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the European Commission's approach to state aid for foreign direct investment in a competition policy framework. The Commission shows to consider variable cost aid (VCA) to be more ...

Title: Stationary Equilibrium Distributions in Economies with Limited Commitment Author(s): BROER, Tobias Date: 2009 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: Limited commitment to contracts can explain imperfect risk sharing even when individuals have access to complete insurance markets. Past contributions have focused on the resulting cross-sectional distribution of consumption ...

Title: A Statistical Comparison of Alternative Identification Schemes for Monetary Policy Shocks Author(s): LANNE, Markku; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2008 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: Abstract. Different identification schemes for monetary policy shocks have been proposed in the literature. They typically specify just-identifying re- strictions in a standard structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) ...

Title: Statistical Inference in Calibrated Models Author(s): CANOVA, Fabio Date: 1993 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Stochastic Linear Trends: Models and Estimators Author(s): MARAVALL, Agustin Date: 1992 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Stock Prices and Economic Fluctuations: A Markov Switching Structural Vector Autoregressive Analysis Author(s): LANNE, Markku; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2008 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: The role of expectations for economic fluctuations has received considerable attention in recent business cycle analysis. We exploit Markov regime switching models to identify shocks in cointegrated structural vector ...

Title: Strategic Campaigning with Vote and Turnout Buying: Theory and evidence Author(s): CASAS, Agustin Date: 2012 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI MWP Abstract: In this paper, I model the relationship between potential voters and a politician, who can pay citizens to vote for him – vote buying – or to show up to vote – turnout buying. This model is used to explore the optimal ...

Title: Strategic Mass Killings Author(s): ESTEBAN, Joan; MORELLI, Massimo; ROHNER, Dominic Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: Since World War II there have been about fifty episodes of large-scale mass killings of civilians and massive forced displacements. They were usually meticulously planned and independent of military goals. We provide a ...

Title: Strategic Wage Bargaining, Labor Market Volatility and Persistence Author(s): HERTWECK, Matthias S. Date: 2006 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: This paper modifies the standard Mortensen-Pissarides job matching model in order to explain the cyclical behavior of vacancies and unemployment. The modifications include strategic wage bargaining (Hall and Milgrom, ...

Title: A Structural Model of Intra-European Airline Competition Author(s): NERO, Giovanni Date: 1994 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressions with Markov Switching Author(s): LANNE, Markku; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut; MACIEJOWSKA, Katarzyna Date: 2009 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: Abstract. It is argued that in structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) analysis a Markov regime switching (MS) property can be exploited to identify shocks if the reduced form error covariance matrix varies across regimes. ...

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressions with Markov Switching: Combining conventional with statistical identification of shocks Author(s): HERWARTZ, Helmut; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2011 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: In structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) analysis a Markov regime switching (MS) property can be exploited to identify shocks if the reduced form error covariance matrix varies across regimes. Unfortunately, these shocks ...

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressions with Nonnormal Residuals Author(s): LANNE, Markku; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2005 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressive Analysis for Cointegrated Variables Author(s): LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2005 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: The Structure of Multiple Credit Relationships: Evidence from US Firm Author(s): GUISO, Luigi; MINNETTI, Raul Date: 2007 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: When firms borrow from multiple concentrated creditors such as banks they appear to differentiate their allocation of borrowing. In this paper, we put forward hypotheses for this borrowing pattern based on incomplete ...

Title: The Structure of the Lattices of Pure Strategy Nash Equilibria of Binary Games of Strategic Complements Author(s): RODRIGUEZ BARRAQUER, Tomas Date: 2012 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI MWP Abstract: It has long been established in the literature that the set of pure strategy Nash equilibria of any binary game of strategic complements among a set N of players can be seen as a lattice on the set of all subsets of N under ...

Title: Subsidising Cooperative and Non-Cooperative RandD in Duopoly with Spillovers Author(s): HINLOOPEN, Jeroen Date: 1994 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Substitutability and Competition in the Dixit-Stiglitz Model Author(s): KOENIGER, Winfried; LICANDRO, Omar Date: 2004 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Sunspots and Multiplicity Author(s): HOELLE, Matthew Date: 2011-01-01 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI MWP Abstract: This paper proves that a multiplicity of certainty equilibria is not necessary for the existence of sunspot effects in two-period general equilibrium models with incomplete markets. Sunspot effects are present, by definition, ...
