题目:Information Spillover and Delay in Multi-good Adverse Selection

(coauthored with Heng Liu )

摘要:This paper analyzes the effect of information spillover in a multigood adverse selection model.In the canonical setting, a privately informed seller simultaneously engages in trading two different goods with different buyers. Since the seller’s private information about the surplus is multidimensional in nature, buyers not only learn the seller’s information from past trading outcomes in the market they participate, they may also learn from transactions in the other market, which is referred to as “information spillover”. We fully characterize the equilibria of this model and identify a “beneficial spillover” condition under which the efficiency loss due to adverse selection reduces: under this condition, trade occurs faster than the case without information spillover, even though delays may occur in equilibrium; when this condition fails, the efficiency loss is the same as in the case without information spillover. Our findings provide a link between the signaling effect in the standard dynamic adverse selection and the ratchet effect in repeated bargaining.
