On the Normalized Herfindahl-Hirschman Index: A Technical Note

We compare the application of two different normalization procedures for the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index. We show that structural differences exist between the two indices and derive the conditions for which these differences are more or less substantial.

Keywords
