ABSTRACT

This study investigates how the ownership structure of entrants affects incumbents’ reaction to entry. Consumer cooperatives internalize consumer surplus and community externalities; thus, they are incentivized to maximize them, leading to high-quality service provision, greater consumer trust and loyalty. Moreover, formed to serve consumers/members and often to countervail existing market power, cooperatives are unlikely to have a mutual understanding with incumbents. Therefore, I argue that cooperative entry may be a bigger threat than investor-owned firm entry, forcing incumbents to react more competitively to cooperative entry than to investor-owned firm entry. I test and find support for these arguments in the US broadband industry from 2014 to 2018, showing that incumbents are more likely to upgrade their internet deployment technology to high-tech when facing cooperative entry than when facing investor-owned firm entry. Such an effect is stronger in markets with only one or two high-quality internet provider(s) and stronger for big national incumbents than for small local incumbents.
