Interpersonal Authority in a Theory of the Firm

By: Eric J. Van den Steen
This paper develops a theory of the firm in which a firm's centralized asset ownership and low-powered incentives give the manager, as an equilibrium outcome, interpersonal authority over employees (in a world with open disagreement). The paper thus provides... View Details

A Gap-Filling Theory of Corporate Debt Maturity Choice

We argue that time-series variation in the maturity of aggregate corporate debt issues arises because firms behave as macro liquidity providers, absorbing the large supply shocks associated with changes in the maturity structure of government debt. We document that... View Details

Crowdfunding as 'Donations': Theory & Evidence

Pricing Power in Advertising Markets: Theory and Evidence
