讲座内容摘要

Modern supply chains increasingly utilize Partial Vertical Ownership (PVO) to align incentives   between firms. This talk explores how these equity linkages reshape operational strategies through two critical dimensions. In the 1st dimension, we examine the interaction between PVO and a retailer’s use of strategic inventory to gain bargaining leverage. Findings reveal a non-linear effect: PVO stimulates inventory accumulation at low holding costs but inhibits it when costs are high. In the 2nd dimension, In the context of EV battery recycling, we analyze the dilemma of sharing private data on retirement volumes. The direction of ownership—Forward (FPO) vs. Backward (BPO)—dictates   transparency. While FPO typically makes information sharing a dominant strategy, high equity stakes in BPO can incentivize manufacturers to maintain   information asymmetry to protect their strategic position.
