Abstract

This paper reviews the nascent literature on“two‐sided markets”which can be characterized by two‐sided indirect network effects. It presents key findings in this literature, derives some of them in numerical examples and discusses how these findings improve our understanding of real‐world markets. It finally discusses some implications for competition policy.
