Online hybrid Dutch auction approach for selling toxic assets under asymmetric bidders and the possibility of collusion

作者:

Highlights:

• First attempt in modeling Hybrid Dutch Auction (HDA) for online selling of NPLs.

• Equilibria are derived via backward induction in the symmetric and asymmetric cases.

• We found that bidding in the third stage by the Dutch winner favors the seller.

• Results indicate the HDA outperforms five of the best popular auctions.

• The HDA leads to more competition, higher revenues, and lower variances.
