Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Turning the Ratchet: Dynamic Screening with Multiple Agents

Click here to flash read.

arXiv:2405.04468v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We study a dynamic contracting problem with multiple agents and a lack of commitment. A principal who can only commit to one-period contracts wants to screen efficient agents over time. Once an agent reveals his type, the principal becomes tempted to revise contract terms, causing a "ratchet effect." Alterations of contracts are observable and, hence, whenever past promises are not honored future information revelation stops. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition under which the principal is able to foster information revelation. When players are sufficiently patient, the agents' private information is either never revealed or fully revealed in a sequential manner. Optimal contracts entail high-powered incentives after an agent's type is initially disclosed, and rewards for information revelation disappear in the long run.
