We focus on four key policy instruments: patent office examination, pre- and post-grant fees, and challenges in the courts. We show that there are important complementarities among these instruments, and identify conditions under which they can be used to achieve either partial or complete screening. We simulate the model to study the welfare effects of different policy reforms. We show that intensifying patent office examination, frontloading patent fees and capping litigation costs all generate welfare gains, while replacing examination with a pure registration system reduces welfare. 000048245 650_0 $$aPatent laws and legislation. 000048245 650_0 $$aPatents. 000048245 650_0 $$aEconomic development projects$$xDirectories. 000048245 7001_ $$aSchankerman, Mark,$$eauthor. 000048245 85641 $$uhttps://research.tilburguniversity.edu/en/publications/screening-for-patent-quality-examination-fees-and-the-courts 000048245 903__ $$aTILEC Discussion Paper 000048245 904__ $$aJournal article 000048245 980__ $$aBIB
