Abstract

I introduce a coco decomposition for bargaining solutions, analogous to the one Kalai and Kalai (2013) introduced for 2-person games in strategic form. On the basis of this decomposition I formulate a coco axiom, and show that the Nash bargaining solution is the unique scale covariant solution that satisfies it.
