Abstract

Economic agents should be fully informed in order to maximize welfare by removing market disruptions. The full knowledge which is one of the assumptions of the traditional economic approach has been rejected in the recent studies and it is stated that the information is lacking and asymmetric and therefore market disruptions come to the forefront. Information created under certain conditions that economic agents use in their decisions and actions does not remove the problems of adverse selection and moral hazard. Information asymmetry among individuals will be minimized through institutions to be established in the obtaining, usage, and transfer of knowledge. Institutions such as signaling and discrimination, which will be created in the labor market in particular, will be able to provide economic efficiency by selecting qualified staff and paying based on efficiency.
