About Course
The access to funds is often unduly difficult or expensive for governments and firms. This is due to the difficulty of contracting under uncertainty about future events but also uncertainty about the abilities and the behavior of the borrower.
The direct or indirect production of information before or during the implementation of a contract can take various forms of signals, incentives and commitments. For instance, collateral and covenants are common in the case of bank loans; power-sharing in decision-making is common in partnerships and equity finance.
The course offers insights into the application to corporate, bank and government finance of key reference contracts and of economic models of asymmetric information.
