The paper shows mathematically why coalitions of buyers — demand aggregators — emerge. Using Hoeffding’s inequality, the authors prove collective procurement lowers cost variance. Aggregation thus acts as a market self-insurance mechanism. Cooperation becomes an optimal equilibrium.🌟 Follow us on LinkedIn! Check…
