主題:Competition in Procurement Auctions with Corruption(政府采購中的拍賣競爭與腐敗)
摘要:We study the effects of corruption on equilibrium competition and social welfare in a public procurement auction. A bureaucrat runs the auction on behalf of a government. He invites firms into the auction at positive costs, and may request a bribe from the winning firm afterward. We first show that, under standard assumptions, in the absence of corruption, the bureaucrat invites more firms than social optimum number that maximizes social welfare. Secondly, the effects of corruption on competition and social welfare vary across different forms of bribery. In the case of fixed bribe, corruption has no effect on equilibrium competition, yet does induce social welfare loss due to the distortion cost of increased public spending. In the case of proportional bribe, the corrupt bureaucrat will invite fewer firms into the auction, which may result in Pareto-improving allocation in equilibrium. Finally, we also show that information disclosure may consistently induce more firms to be invited, if compared with the case of no information disclosure, no matter there is corruption or not.
