Background
About Michael Keefe
My research focuses on the effect of asymmetrical informed agents on decisions of firm management and market participants. For example, information asymmetry between firm management and other agents distorts first best decisions relative to cash holdings and equity and debt issuance. In my papers, I empirically test theoretically motivated hypotheses using a wide variety of econometric techniques to unravel causality and economic importance. For example, when facing a negative shock to earnings, James Tate and I found that small and young firms with low cash holdings reduced investment by 7% relative to small and young firms with high cash holdings. The implication is that small firms need to hold cash to maintain an investment program.
