Funded Activity Summary

Partial equity ownership and knowledge transfer: An economic analysis of strategic alliances. Since 1997, 5462 cases of equity strategic alliances have been identified within Australia. In 2003, the ACCC rejected a proposal by Qantas and Air New Zealand to enter into such an alliance on the grounds that it would be highly anti-competitive. Under what conditions should the Government allow or prevent the formation of equity strategic alliances? Under what circumstances can such alliances benefit consumers and society? This project addresses these questions by systematically exploring the link between equity ownership and knowledge transfer. It will contribute to the effective operation of the Australian economy by proposing comprehensive guidelines for antitrust agencies to analyse welfare consequences of equity strategic alliances.
