Objectivos:
(1) To contribute to the ongoing debate about the competitive and welfare effects of price discrimination based on customer information databases by extending the extant literature to markets where: (i) firms have private information about their costs and/or demand conditions (ii) consumers have elastic demands and (iii) firms are able to use targeted advertising technologies.
(2) Investigate for the first time the effects of mergers when the asset is
information assuming that the merged firms might have an informational
advantage to target many sorts of competitive decisions like their pricing,
product offerings and advertising policies. In doing this project aims to
shed light on whether the concentration of information through a merger
might give rise to exclusionary effects, antitrust and consumer welfare
concerns as well as privacy concerns Responsável:

| Economia e Educação em Portugal: porquê e para quem? | |
|
Objectivos: Portugal apresenta ainda baixos níveis de escolaridade quando comparado com os demais países da OCDE: a média de anos de escolaridade da população adulta é das mais baixas; as taxas de abandono escolar são das mais elevadas; as crianças actualmente na escola apresentam um baixo desempenho nas avaliações internacionais. Esta baixa qualificação é frequentemente reconhecida como um dos principais factores explicativos do hiato de produtividade do país, relativamente aos demais países da OCDE. Contudo, nos últimos 25 anos observaram-se mudanças significativas: o país aumentou o nível de escolaridade obrigatória; o ensino superior massificou-se; e os níveis intermédios de escolaridade foram também afectados várias mudanças legislativas e políticas. Dado este contexto de mudança das qualificações de ensino, o projecto apresenta três objectivos principais: 1. Analisar os retornos sociais da educação. 2. Revisitar os retornos privados da educação. 3. Analisar as determinantes das escolhas individuais de escolaridade e o impacto de algumas políticas com efeitos prováveis nos custos e benefícios individuais de capital humano adicional.

| Evaluating the Portuguese Shadow Toll Program: Validation, renegotiation and policy recommendations | |
|
Objectivos:
Specific objectives: 1. To verify whether the conclusion of the SCUT network has allowed to improve the levels of accessibility. 2. To increase the information available for decision-making on private participation. 3. To evaluate the potential of alternative concession schemes that avoid the problems associated with fixed-term mechanisms and models with shadow tolls or fixed tolls. The project aims to explore issues of great importance in transport policy, such as accessibility, the elasticity of demand with respect to tolls and the potential of variable-term mechanisms, using as case study the SCUT program.

| Private versus public ownership: implications for the labour market | |
|
Objectivos:
What are the labour market implications of public versus private ownership of firms? We want to contribute to this general question by addressing four specific issues: 1. How does public versus private ownership affect centrally bargained wages and local wage drift? Is the wage drift higher or lower in industries with more public ownership? 2. How does public versus private ownership affect the degree of rent-sharing between firms and workers? 3. How does public versus private ownership affect the composition of the workforce? In particular, do public firms have a different skill composition than private firms? 4. How does public versus private ownership affect gender wage discrimination? We will analyze these questions both theoretically and empirically, and one of our major aims is to make a strong and explicit link between economic theory and empirical analysis.

| Remuneração dos CEOs: O caso dos CEOs que recebem $1 de salário anual | |
|
Objectivos: In an era in which U.S. CEOs have been accused of earning excessive compensation, we study why some CEOs have settled for a mere dollar-a-year salary. By studying this phenomenon our goal is to contribute to the literature on CEO compensation in several ways: (1) To examine an unaddressed, highly publicized, phenomenon affecting familiar firms; (2) To analyze the unexamined motivations and consequences in a case where the traditional compensation format is abandoned; (3) To study the heterogeneity of characteristics among CEOs, which may be useful in understanding the behavior of firms according to a growing literature that links CEO characteristics with the policies and outcomes of firms.
