In anticipation of rent extraction by the innovator signatories might abate less than non-signatories turning the IEA 'brown'. Self-enforcing IEAs have fewer signatories and di.usion can reduce global abatement under TRIPs. Countries hosting patent holders extract rents from TRIPs, but may be better o. without them
