Is allowing trading enough? Making secondary markets in spectrum work

Author

  • Crocioni, Pietro

Abstract

The debate on spectrum reforms has mostly focused on the choice between a property rights and a commons regime. This article argues that moving to a property right system requires careful attention to details in order to avoid that "micro" rather than "macro" factors may prevent efficient trades from taking place. It provides a framework to conduct this assessment, identifies a number of possible concerns and puts forward some solutions.
