METEOR Research Memoranda: Entry thresholds and actual entry and exit in local markets

Martin CARREE, Marcus Dejardin

    Research output: Working paper

    Abstract

    Bresnahan and Reiss (1991) derive entry thresholds (equilibrium numbers of firms) for local markets but do not investigate actual entry and exit flows. This paper investigates for thirteen Belgian retail and service industries whether markets with actual numbers of firms higher (lower) than the thresholds display exit (entry) in subsequent periods.
