Despite several rounds of institutional reform starting from 2005, the public procurement process in Russia remains marred by low competitiveness and inefficiency. In the years 2014–2018, almost half of the studied auctions failed to attract more than a single-bidder. But are single-bidder auctions necessarily uncompetitive? The auction format we study is a sealed-bid auction, where ...

Prior studies and our results indicate these setasides reduce costs of government contracting. If they are cheaper, why should regulations enforce them, and why do ...
