The Contingent Governance of Teams: Analysis of Institutional Complementarity

Masahiko Aoki

International Economic Review, 1994, vol. 35, issue 3, 657-76

Abstract: The first purpose of this paper is to design a model of governance structure, called the contingent governance, which can control the free-riding problem in teams in the second-best manner. The second is to show, by a new method of comparative static analysis, that the effectiveness of the contingent governance may be enhanced by complementary institutional arrangements of the imperfect labor market and bank-centered financial system. The paper discusses the implications of such institutional complementarity for the dynamic change of the Japanese main bank system and financial system design of transitional economies.
