  • What Explains Differences in Finance Research Productivity During the Pandemic? -- by Brad M. Barber, Wei Jiang, Adair Morse, Manju Puri, Heather Tookes, Ingrid M. Werner
    Using a survey of AFA members, we analyze how demographics, time allocation, production mechanisms, and institutional factors affect research production during the pandemic. Consistent with the literature, research productivity falls more for women and faculty with young children.

We implement this method with cell phone transaction data from Dhaka and Colombo. Model-predicted income predicts separate income data, […]

    Financial regulations and clientele segmentation explain the proliferation of order types on stock exchanges. Plain market and limit orders lose money, indicating that informed traders use complex orders. Fifty-seven percent of trading volume comes from non-routable orders, which are designed to bypass Reg NMS. Because Reg NMS routes orders based on the best gross prices, […]
