SUMMARY:Does the Control–Cash Flow Rights Wedge Capture Private Benefits of Control? Evidence from a Mandatory Bid Rule Reform
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Lubar Research Seminar Series \nSpeaker:  Carlos Acuna\, Lubar College of Business\, University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee\n \nCarlos examines whether the control–cash flow rights wedge captures private benefits of control (PBC) by exploiting Chile’s adoption of the Mandatory Bid Rule (MBR)\, which requires equal-price offers to all shareholders in control transactions. Firms could opt out for three years through early notification\, with opting out reflecting higher PBC. He finds an inverted U-shaped relationship between opting out and the wedge\, consistent with outsider monitoring limiting expropriation beyond the turning point. The inverted-U implies that the wedge is an imperfect proxy for PBC\, calling for measures that capture both insider expropriation incentives and outsider monitoring intensity.

SUMMARY:Creative Destruction in the Healthcare Sector: Hospital Closures and Patient Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Lubar Research Seminar Series \nSpeaker:  Tim Liu\, University of Utah\n \nSince 2010\, the US has seen the net closure of over 100 hospitals\, underscoring a need to better understand how closures impact patient outcomes. Using confidential patient-level data\, we track patients who are displaced from closed hospitals and forced to seek treatment elsewhere\, measuring their outcomes pre and post closure. We find that individuals whose hospital closes and who subsequently switch to another facility experience better health outcomes\, relative to patients who do not lose their hospital. Patients displaced by closures tend to receive treatment at higher-quality hospitals characterized by stronger financial performance and higher staffing ratios\, suggesting that market exit by inefficient providers may reallocate patients toward better-performing institutions. While displaced patients who remain in the hospital system find higher quality care\, we find evidence that elderly patients in rural areas experience elevated mortality outside of the hospital system\, suggesting limited accessibility to substitute providers. Overall\, our findings reveal heterogeneous effects of hospital closures: while they may enhance care quality and efficiency for most patients\, they pose significant risks to patient health in immobile populations. \nTim Liu is an Assistant Professor of Finance at the University of Utah’s David Eccles School of Business. His research focuses on corporate finance\, labor economics\, and healthcare. He earned his PhD in Finance from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and holds both undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. His work has been published in the Review of Financial Studies.

SUMMARY:Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence in Research
DESCRIPTION:Large language models (LLMs) and artificial intelligence (AI) are generating a tidal wave of transformative change\, increasing productivity\, and generating more than a trillion words each day. The upswing in the quantity of scholarly work and journal submissions\, however\, has also made more pertinent questions how we could use AI responsibly in conducting research\, while preserving research integrity and maintaining human accountability. Furthermore\, what does AI use mean for the broader community of readers\, scholars\, reviewers\, authors\, and editors? \nOur distinguished panel will discuss how AI-assisted research and creativity could augment the scientific discovery process\, as well as potentially harm it. What is the need for editorial oversight regarding the use of AI in data analysis and manuscript development? What constitutes an appropriate level of transparency and the disclosure of how\, when\, and where authors have utilized AI in their submissions or underlying research? When is AI use synergistic or antithetical to mainlining the quality and standards of academic journals which value human voice and research transparency. \nDr. Daniel Muzio is a Professor of Management. He joined York in 2018 from the University of Newcastle\, having previously worked at the Universities of: Manchester\, Leeds and Lancaster. He has held visiting positions at the University of Oxford\, Cass Business School\, and Luiss Guido Carli in Rome. He is Chair of the Organization and Management Editors Network (the first professional association in the area)\, and\nserved as founding editor for the Journal of Professions and Organization\, and General Editor of the Journal of Management Studies.\n \nDr. Corinne Post\, the Fred J. Springer Endowed Chair in Business Leadership\, is an expert in workplace diversity with a focus on women on boards\, in top management teams\, and in leadership roles. Her research addresses diversity as an enabler or impediment to group and organizational performance and career trajectories.

Her research has been discussed in places such as the Harvard Business Review\, Financial Times\, Forbes\, Fortune\, The Wall Street Journal\, and The Washington Post. She is also a contributor at Forbes. Dr. Post earned her BS in Organization Management and a Masters in International Management from HEC\, University of Geneva and HEC\, University of Lausanne—both in Switzerland—respectively. She received her PhD in Organization Management from Rutgers University. Prior to joining academia\, she was an IT analyst and human resource specialist for Accenture. \nDr. Christopher Wickert is Professor of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU)\, The Netherlands and Director of the VU Business & Society Knowledge Hub (https://business-society.org). His primary research interests are in the broader role of business in society\, sustainability\, corporate social responsibility (CSR) and various strands of organizational theory.

SUMMARY:Bradley Distinguished Lecture Series

Kaplan\, Neubauer Family Distinguished Service Professor of Entrepreneurship and Finance\, and Kessenich E.P. Faculty Director\, Polsky Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship\, University of Chicago Booth School of Business \nThe large increase in private equity\, venture capital and private debt has generated widespread interest and scrutiny\, particularly in light of the AI-boom and its financing. What is the history of private equity and venture capital? What do private equity and venture capital actually do to the companies they invest in? How have they really performed for investors? With the investment boom\, how are they likely to perform in the future in the age of AI? Do these investors and their investment structures make us vulnerable to another financial crisis? \nDr. Kaplan offers his analysis and perspectives on these issues and his views on potential implications for policymakers. \nAbout the Speaker\n \nDr. Kaplan’s research focuses on private equity\, venture capital\, corporate governance and executive talent. He was elected a Fellow of the American Finance Association in recognition of distinguished contributions to the field of finance. He is the co-creator of the Kaplan-Schoar PME (Public Market Equivalent) private equity benchmarking approach. A Fortune Magazine article referred to him as “probably the foremost private equity scholar in the galaxy.” Professor Kaplan is a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research.\nProfessor Kaplan co-founded the entrepreneurship program at Booth. With his students\, he helped start Booth’s business plan competition\, the New Venture Challenge (NVC)\, which has spawned over two hundred companies. The companies have raised over $1.2 billion from investors and have created over $10 billion in market value. Companies include GrubHub\, Simple Mills\, Braintree/Venmo\, Open Water and Tovala. Professor Kaplan serves on the board of Morningstar (MORN). He co-created the Lincoln Middle Market Index.\nProfessor Kaplan earned his PhD in Business Economics from Harvard University.
