      On Derivatives Markets and Social Welfare: A Theory of Empty Voting and Hidden Ownership

      By: Jordan M. Barry, John William Hatfield and Scott Duke Kominers
      In the past twenty-five years, derivatives markets have grown exponentially. Large, modern derivatives markets increasingly enable investors to hold economic interests in corporations without owning voting rights, and vice versa. This leads to both empty... View Details

      Decoding Inside Information

      Agency Costs, Mispricing, and Ownership Structure

      By: Sergey Chernenko, C. Fritz Foley and Robin Greenwood

      Employee Selection as a Control System
