Product market competition

Introduction: This page is the main page for information about the product markets of relevance for corporate governance. The product market competition is of major importance in corporate governance because it affects the incentives of managers and thereby the efficiency of the firm. There are two kinds of product market competition that are relevant in corporate governance. 1) Competition in the firm's product markets, and 2) competition in the product markets of the firm’s owners if they are firms as well. For instance the product markets of an institutional investor. A classic reference on product market competition is Hart [1983].
