Does Gender Affect Innovation? Evidence from Female Chief Technology Officers
W. Dbouk, Iftekhar Hasan, N. Kobeissi, Q. Wu, L. Zheng
>>In this paper, we examine the impact of female Chief Technology Officers (CTOs) on corporate innovation. We find that firms with female CTOs are more innovative (captured by patent counts and patent citations) than firms with male CTOs. …<<

Journal of Corporate Finance
Stock Liquidity, Empire Building, and Valuation
S. Chatterjee, Iftekhar Hasan, K. John, A. Yan
>>We conjecture that high stock liquidity negatively affects firm valuation by inducing inefficient investment. Using takeovers of public targets to study the empire-building motive, we find that a liquid firm is more likely than an illiquid firm to acquire a public firm. …<<

Gender, Credit, and Firm Outcomes
M. D. Delis, Iftekhar Hasan, M. Iosifidi, S. Ongena

A Note of Caution on Quantifying Banks’ Recapitalization Effects
Felix Noth, Kirsten Schmidt, Lena Tonzer

Economic Inquiry
The Cleansing Effect of Banking Crises
Reint E. Gropp, S. Ongena, J. Rocholl, Vahid Saadi
>>We assess the cleansing effects of the 2008-2009 financial crisis. U.S. regions with higher levels of supervisory forbearance on distressed banks see less restructuring in the real sector: fewer establishments, firms, and jobs are lost when more distressed banks remain in business. Regions with less forbearance experience higher productivity growth after the crisis. …<<

IMF Economic Review
Inequality in Life and Death
M. S. Eichenbaum, S. Rebelo, Mathias Trabandt
>>We argue that the COVID epidemic disproportionately affected the economic well-being and health of poor people. To disentangle the forces that generated this outcome, we construct a model that is consistent with the heterogeneous impact of the COVID recession on low- and high-income people. …<<

Micro-mechanisms Behind Declining Labor Shares: Rising Market Power and Changing Modes of Production
Matthias Mertens
>>I derive a micro-founded framework showing how rising firm market power on product and labor markets and falling aggregate labor output elasticities provide three competing explanations for falling labor shares. …<<

Mission, Motivation, and the Active Decision to Work for a Social Cause
Sabrina Jeworrek, V. Mertins

Small Business Economics
Does Working at a Start-up Pay Off?
Daniel Fackler, Lisa Hölscher, Claus Schnabel, A. Weyh
>>Using representative linked employer-employee data for Germany, this paper analyzes short- and long-run differences in labor market performance of workers joining start-ups instead of incumbent firms. Following individuals over ten years, we find huge and long-lasting drawbacks from entering a start-up in terms of wages, yearly income, and (un)employment. …<<
