Elaborating the Motivations and Attitudes Driving Interest in Voluntary Biodiversity Credits
Global biodiversity loss has prompted the search for new sources of conservation finance, such as voluntary biodiversity credits (VBCs). However, despite optimistic market projections, current uptake of VBCs is limited. Adopting an interpretive approach, we analyse 21 semistructured interviews with early market actors (buyers, sellers, intermediaries) in the United Kingdom to elaborate the motivations and attitudes fuelling interest in VBCs. Spec…
Good and Bad Equilibria with the Informal Sector
We examine whether an economy can have a bad (small or no formal sector, high taxes) as well as a good (small or no informal sector, low taxes) equilibrium. The government maximizes a combination of instantaneous welfare and the rate of decline of the informal sector. When the instantaneous welfare component only contains formal-sector welfare, multiple equilibria can occur if the elasticity of average to marginal cost for the public good is less…
