Zusammenfassung:This paper examines the role of middlemen (brokers) in an imperfect secondary market for quota licenses. Middlemen facilitate trade when markets are thin, as potential buyers and sellers find it difficult to meet and transact directly.

We develop and simulate a model of quota broker behavior to examine their welfare implications
