Efficiency in auctions with crossholdings

Author

Listed:
  • Ettinger, David

Abstract

We study the impact of crossholdings on the efficiency of the standard auction formats. The ascending auction is not equivalent to the second-price auction. In a class of examples, the ascending auction is the only efficient standard auction format.
