As life expectancy grows, old agents become even more optimistic, while young agents

Bank Monitoring with On‐Site Inspections
ABSTRACT Using proprietary transaction‐level data on nonsyndicated construction loans, we provide some of the first empirical evidence on the drivers and consequences of bank monitoring through on‐site inspections. Banks trade off monitoring intensity with favorable origination terms.
