How does bid-rigging impact public procurement? 🏗️ Read the new thought leadership brief for "Kamikazes in Public Procurements" (co-authored with @alminas). Grateful to the HKUST Institute for Emerging Market Studies for funding this research! iems.ust.hk/assets/publica…

I know this question was already asked so many times here, but I am looking for teaching materials to help #Finance or #Economics PhD students use AI techniques for research. Focus: empirical work (data, analysis) and writing (proofreading, etc). Thanks! #PhD #AI #LLM

Update: he got an offer!

@florianederer Great guide! Just as another example, we have a paper that shows that shared ownership also affects prices in public procurement and ultimately public services provision papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

Common ownership isn't just an academic curiosity anymore. Isabel Tecu and I have a new guide for antitrust practitioners reviewing the theory, evidence, mechanisms, and policy debates around investors holding large stakes in rival firms. Comments welcome!

@PossebomVitor @pedroclsouza Very interesting research, indeed! Do you know the source of the crime data?

Thank you for visiting us, @pedroclsouza. I really enjoyed your presentation. Your dataset is impressive! For anyone interested, Pedro's research can be found here: pedroclsouza.com/about.

In case you need a distraction from the daily news and want to learn more about the effects of bid-rigging in public procurement auctions on health outcomes, road accidents, and government contracts more broadly...

Join us this Thursday as we will present our research on "Kamikazes in Public Procurements" at the HKUST-IEMS Webinar! 🕓 Times: 4pm SGT/HKT 9am BST 4am EDT 1am PDT Register here to participate: hkust.zoom.us/webinar/regist… #Economics #CorporateGovernance #BidRigging #Procurement

@rphlbruce you are too kind as always

@Noahpinion Full paper here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

Give people housing and they'll have kids! Obtaining housing increases the average probability of having a child by 3.8% and the number of children by 3.2%. For 20 to 25-year-olds, the corresponding effects are 32% and 33%.

@EmilyAGallaghe1 Thank you for sharing and for the kind words! I am really glad you found the paper interesting. Housing effects on family formation is such an important issue in our current environment.
