Fringe firms and incentives to innovate
Article Abstract:
Economists are divided on the issue of whether dominant firms and monopolists are more likely or less likely to invest in innovations, but the answer to this debate appears market-specific. In the US auto market of the early 1970s, fringe firms, Japanese automakers, responded to greater incentives to innovate because the dominant manufacturers were not investing in innovation. This analysis indicates the potential efficiency losses that can result in monopolistic markets due to disincentives to innovate.
