Title: Riccardo Faini CEIS Seminar - Lucy O'Shea 15 May 2015

CEIS-Tor Vergata is pleased to inform you that, on Friday May 15th, 2015 at 12.00 pm, Lucy O’Shea (University of Bath) will present a paper on “Inhouse provision Vs. outsourcing: an application to household waste managementâ€

ABSTRACT

The argument for out-sourcing is that it can lead to a reduction in costs. However, the effect on quality is less clear. Drawing on Hart et al. (1997) we develop a model to explain the incentives to invest in cost reduction and quality improvement in the context of waste management. The basic model tells us that outsourcing provides stronger incentives to reduce costs and increase quality relative to keeping waste management in-house. To this basic model we add a political dimension and find that the gap in quality widens. We also explore some initial empirical evidence.

The Seminar will be held at the Faculty of Economics, University of Rome "Tor Vergata", B-building, 1° floor, room B
