We examine a dynamic disclosure model in which the value of an asset follows a random walk. An agent learns with some probability the asset value at any point in time in and decides whether to disclose it. He maximizes market perceptions of the asset’s value that reflect the information that was...

Using the staggered liberalization of access to foreign capital across highly disaggregated Indian industries, we show that reducing capital misallocation increases aggregate productivity. The natural policy experiment allows us to credibly identify changes in firms' input wedges, addressing major...

I model International climate agreements among asymmetric countries, each of whom must select a profile of CO2 emissions over time. Predictions from this model imply larger reductions by “large” countries, but larger proportional reductions by “small” countries. I then analyze experimental data...

The recent proliferation of types of humans known from the fossil record has made the question of why only one species survives today especially intriguing. In this talk I will return to the much debated question of the cognitive differences between Homo sapiens and all other members of Homo,...

Every time data are collected, it is virtually certain that we will face the problem of missing data. Missing data are undesirable because they make estimates vulnerable to nonresponse bias. In surveys, it is customary to distinguish unit nonresponse from item nonresponse. The former occurs when no...

This study evaluates the impact of booking channel availability and price setting on demand patterns and welfare for hotel rooms in the EU. We estimate a one-level nested logit demand model for hotel room nights which includes three different quality segments as nests. We find in an counterfactual...

We propose several tests for multiple equilibria in static and dynamic discrete games with incomplete information where agents' private information are correlated conditional on observable states. First, in static Bayesian games, we propose a test that exploits a concept of "adjacent games'', or...
