Collusion deterrence and efficiency of two regimes of fines Within a Principal Agent Model, we characterize the optimal policy of an agency in charge of competition policy. We consider a situation of asymmetric information concerning the cost of production between the agency and the industry to be controlled. Moreover, we consider two regimes of fines used in practice. The first one makes the fine a fixed proportion of the total sales. The second one makes the fine a multiple of the industry profit from colluding. We compare the two regimes in terms of deterrence levels and efficiency.Dissuasion de la collusion et efficacité de deux systèmes d'amendes Dans le cadre d'un modèle Principal-Agent, nous caractérisons la politique optimale des...
