dc.description.abstractThis paper examines how the formation and termination of cartels affect the performance and behavior of their member firms. We identify 252 publicly listed firms active in 66 European cartels between 1980 and 2007. We investigate both static effects (increased profitability) and changes in strategic firm behavior (R&D investment and acquisition rate). The results show that R&D investment is (increasingly) lower during the cartel period, while the rate of acquiring other firms in fact increases. Hence, next to allocative inefficiency, cartels may also give rise to dynamic inefficiencies in the form of less innovation efforts or increased concentration.de_CH
