Resumo(s)
This paper analyzes how product market competition affects the firms’ choice between outsourcing with long term contracts and outsourcing to the spot market. Product market competition among buyers can lead to an increase in financial distress costs not only for firms outsourcing to the spot market but also for firms outsourcing with a long term contract. We derive the equilibrium for an oligopoly, and show that the equilibrium depends on the magnitude of these costs and on the level of efficiency of the supplier.
