AbstractEndogenous merger waves are studied in vertically related industries where firms may engage in both vertical and horizontal mergers. It is shown that whether and how firms merge depends crucially on the balance between vertical and horizontal externalities, and the balance between upstream and downstream competition. Furthermore, firms may merge with or without any fundamental change in the underlying economic conditions.
