Information revelation and certification intermediaries

Article Abstract:

A model that describes the role of certification intermediaries in markets with asymmetric information is presented. The model centers on a limited set of factors to demonstrate in a particular manner how intermediaries may benefit from manipulating information. In dealing with these issues, information revelation must be considered as a strategic decision for these intermediaries. Further, the model demonstrates that an intermediary can gain from the manipulation of information in a proper way.
