- Economies Of Scope
- Multi-product cost functions in regulated industries (utilities, telecoms) are studied precisely to estimate whether scope economies justify a single integrated firm rather than separate specialists, an empirical literature that grew directly out of the contestable-markets framework.
This sourceEmpirically estimates scale, scope, and product-mix economies from a multi-product cost function for U.S. banks (finding only slight scale/scope effects), exemplifying the post-contestable-markets empirical literature on whether scope economies justify integrated multi-product firms.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
