摘要

We investigate the choice of competing exporters to move simultaneously or sequentially, when a VER has introduced both asymmetry and uncertainty amongst them. A restrained and an unrestrained exporter choose price strategically, under the threat of a VER on the latter. Given the choice, firms adopt a sequential move strategy, but which leads and which follows depends upon the threat of the second VER. The restricted firm thus sells its full quota, even if this threat is low.
