  • Does Private Equity Investment in Healthcare Benefit Patients? Evidence from Nursing Homes -- by Atul Gupta, Sabrina T. Howell, Constantine Yannelis, Abhinav Gupta
    The past two decades have seen a rapid increase in Private Equity (PE) investment in healthcare, a sector in which intensive government subsidy and market frictions could lead high-powered for-profit incentives to be misaligned with the social goal of affordable, quality care.

  • Biases in Information Selection and Processing: Survey Evidence from the Pandemic -- by Ester Faia, Andreas Fuster, Vincenzo Pezone, Basit Zafar

Our calibrated lifecycle model measures the impact of […]
  • The Two Faces of Information -- by Gaetano Gaballo, Guillermo Ordoñez
    In absence of insurance contracts to share risk, public information is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it empowers self-insurance as agents better react to shocks, reducing risk. On the other hand, it weakens market-insurance as common knowledge of shocks restricts trading risk. We embody these two faces of information in a single general-equilibrium […]
