Abstract We extend the equivalence between Bayesian and dominant strategy implementation (Manelli and Vincent in Econometrica 78:1905–1938, 2010; Gershkov et al. in Econometrica 81: 197–220, 2013) to environments with nonlinear utilities satisfying a property of increasing differences over distributions and a convex-valued assumption. The new equivalence result produces novel implications to the literature on the principal-agent problem with allocative externalities, environmental mechanism design, and public good provision.
