Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the existing literature, it is typically assumed that the principal can perfectly commit to the mechanism she designs, no matter how complicated that may be. In a dynamic setting where information is revealed only gradually over time, however, the principal often has an incentive to deviate to another mechanism at some interim stage. To address this issue, we consider a situation where the principal only has limited commitment power and evaluate how the lack of commitment power alters the equilibrium allocation and its welfare properties.
