本文探讨了共同所有权如何影响企业的广告策略和产品市场竞争,证明了共同所有权对广告强度的影响取决于广告对竞争对手的外部性。通过使用竞争对手公司的指数纳入作为所有权结构的外生冲击,我们发现共同所有权对广告强度有一般性的正面影响,这表明共同所有权有助于内部化广告的正面外部性。此外,当消费者需求对广告更敏感且企业拥有更多市场力量时,这种效应更为显著。
This paper examines how common ownership influences firms' advertising strategies and product market competition. We demonstrate that the impact of common ownership on advertising intensity is contingent on the externality of advertising on competitors. Using index inclusions of rival firms as an exogenous shock to ownership structure, we find a generally positive effect of common ownership on advertising intensity, suggesting that common ownership facilitates the internalization of the positive externality of advertising. Moreover, this effect is more pronounced when consumer demand is more sensitive to advertising and firms have more market power.
