Abstract

Administrar eficientemente una opción real implica establecer si conviene ejecutar el proyecto de beneficios inciertos, o diferir la ejecución al futuro, cuando aparece nueva información útil y la incertidumbre sobre los beneficios se reduce o desaparece. Con frecuencia esta decisión se basa en la recomendación de un experto, con capacidad para determinar la rentabilidad del proyecto en caso de ejecutarse. En el presente trabajo analizamos el contrato óptimo que el dueño de la opción real debe proponer al experto para que involucre recursos costosos que le permitan recabar información de utilidad para decidir sobre el timing óptimo, y para que efectúe una recomendación consistente con la información recabada./ Efficient management of a real option involves establishing the convenience of undertaking a proyect with uncertain benefits versus deferring decision and waiting for new useful information to appear and uncertainty to dissapear. Frequently, this decision is based on the recommendation of an expert, with the ability to determine the benefits of the proyect if it is undertaken. In this paper we analyze the optimal contract that the owner of the real option should propose to the expert in order to give her incentives to use costly resources in order to acquire useful information, and to make a recommendation which is consistent with the information acquired.
