Bayesian Model Averaging in Causal Instrumental Variable Models
ABSTRACT Instrumental variables are a popular tool to infer causal effects under unobserved confounding, but choosing suitable instruments is challenging in practice. We propose gIVBMA, a Bayesian model averaging procedure that addresses this challenge by averaging across different sets of instrumental variables and covariates in a structural equation ...

Redacted Disclosures and Bank Loan Contract Terms
ABSTRACT We investigate the impact of redacting disclosures on bank loan contracts. Our findings indicate that firms that redact information have loans with significantly higher spreads, shorter maturities, and more restrictive covenants and face a greater likelihood they will be required to post collateral compared to firms that do not redact ...
