Abstract

The profit-driven orientation of merchants and the information asymmetry among consumers inevitably lead to the market failure of “bad money drives out good”, which is well-known as “Gresham’s Law”. Based on information share theory and social enterprise theory, we put forward dual identities of social enterprise, which are “Good Product” Broker and “Bad Product” Supervisor. Through the in-depth analysis of the emerging case—the “Daddylab”, we analyse the information exchange mechanism among “suppliers, enterprises and consumers”, and verify the dual identities of social enterprises and the stage characteristics, and reveal the process mechanism of the “good money drives out bad” that is promoted by social enterprises.
