This paper analyzes how Payment-in-Kind (PIK) loans, which defer cash interest by increasing debt principal, affect borrower vulnerability among U.S. Business Development Companies (BDCs). We document increased PIK usage during economic downturns and high-interest-rate environments. Loan-level evidence indicates that PIK loans raise delinquency risk, lower valuations, and amplify agency conflicts, though equity stakes held by lenders can mitigate these negative effects. At the portfolio level, higher reliance on deferred interest leads to severe credit deterioration, higher realized losses, and stricter bank-imposed lending constraints. Consequently, BDCs exposed to more PIK loans decrease their use of bank credit lines, effectively limiting their asset growth. Overall, our findings highlight a critical trade-off: while PIK structures provide short-term liquidity relief during financial stress, their extensive use might significantly increase borrower distress and financial fragility.

Marketing Research Seminar
Area Administration
Can liking the same brands help foster conversations among people and help them find common ground on sensitive socio-political issues? Conversations are crucial in bridging the ideological divide, yet people are generally reluctant to talk to others about controversial topics. Across five experiments (n = 2,543) we find that people are more willing to discuss controversial socio-political issues (e.g. phasing out gas cars) with those who share their brand preferences than those who do not. This is because people perceive that others who share their brand preferences also share their opinions on social issues, even if their preferred brands are not known for having a particular ideological stance. This perception of shared opinions overcomes the fear of disagreement, one of the biggest barriers to having controversial conversations. Shared brand preferences can overcome the reluctance to discuss controversial topics even with those from different demographic backgrounds. Confirming the importance of instigat…

Public Seminar - Corporate Law and Governance at the Crossroads: Power, Control, and Shareholder Rights in Controlled Companies
Centre for Cross Border Commercial Law in Asia
This seminar, featuring internationally recognized leaders in US, Chinese, Singapore, and Asian corporate law and governance, examines cutting-edge research on the interplay between controlling shareholders, boards, and activist investors—issues directly relevant to Singapore’s controlling shareholder dominated corporate governance environment. The first presentation challenges recent Delaware court decisions applying heightened scrutiny to controlling shareholders, arguing such strict scrutiny is economically unnecessary outside of freeze-outs. It proposes intermediate scrutiny only when controller influence distorts board processes, focusing on directors who prioritize controller interests over corporate interests. The second presentation reveals empirical evidence on the overlooked rise of shareholder activism in China through 156 major campaigns (2007-2023). Contrary to Western assumptions, the research shows no significant difference in success rates between state-owned and privately-owned enterprises,…

Boosting Symbolic Execution for Vulnerability Detection
School of Computing and Information Systems
Software systems written by humans tend to be unreliable and insecure, hence, vulnerabilities in them are inevitable. Symbolic execution has shown considerable potential in detecting diverse types of software bugs and also vulnerabilities that have severe security implications. However, existing symbolic execution engines still suffer from at least three fundamental limitations in memory modeling, path exploration, and structured input generation, which significantly impede existing engines for efficiently and effectively detecting software bugs and vulnerabilities.
The dissertation aims to boost existing symbolic execution engines by designing a new memory model, two new path exploration strategies, and a new test input generation solution to alleviate three key limitations to facilitate automatic vulnerability detection. Specifically, in the first work, we propose SymLoc, a vulnerability detection system that designs a new symbolic memory model. In the second work, we propose FastKLEE, a faster path exploratio…

Facing social responsibility violations in supply chains, some B2B platforms advertise “one-click” audits that promise to screen hundreds of vendors in seconds, reshaping how firms search for compliant suppliers. Motivated by this emerging platform solution, we build a game-theoretic model with a manufacturer and two potential suppliers whose social-responsibility types are hidden. We analyze direct sourcing, where the manufacturer sequentially audits at a self-chosen inclusiveness level, and platform sourcing, where a marketplace sets the audit inclusiveness and earns a commission. The paper endogenizes suppliers’ pricing, the manufacturer’s search, and audit decisions. The equilibrium results show that although the platform enables competition between suppliers by simultaneously presenting their social responsibility signals and prices to the manufacturer, platform sourcing does not always improve profits or social responsibility in supply chains. Interestingly, it is better than direct sourcing when the pe…

Evaluation of Pre-trained Vision Language Models in Challenging Contexts
School of Computing and Information Systems
This thesis presents a comprehensive evaluation of pre-trained vision-language models (VLMs), aiming to dissect their performance limitations, especially in challenging contexts that push their boundaries. We delve into three primary concerns: stereotypical bias, reasoning beyond common sense, and underspecification. A new dataset, VLStereoSet, is introduced to comprehensively measure stereotypical bias, which reveals prevalent biases through empirical analysis on six VLMs. Furthermore, we present ROME, a dataset challenging VLMs with counter-intuitive scenarios to test their reasoning against human-like interpretation. Our findings from this dataset demonstrate a significant gap between machine reasoning and nuanced human thought. Finally, we propose FOCUS, a vision-language dataset designed to evaluate how VLMs handle underspecified statements by requiring context-sensitive disambiguation through paired images. Through rigorous experimentation and analysis, we aim to unravel the complexities of these models…

SGRI Professorship Lecture 2025
Centre for Cross Border Commercial Law in Asia
What should bankruptcy law do when numerous affiliated corporate entities comprising a corporate group collectively file for bankruptcy in a single jurisdiction? Should the law respect the boundaries among the entities for determining creditor payouts, or should it consolidate the group? Should it enforce intragroup guarantees? This lecture considers these questions from the lens of law and economics, starting with the assumption that the purpose of bankruptcy law is to minimize expected creditor losses ex post and thus minimize corporate groups’ cost of debt ex ante. The lecture will include a discussion of the purposes of corporate subsidiaries and whether disregarding the borders among them in bankruptcy would undermine those purposes. The lecture will also compare the treatment of corporate groups under U.S. law and Singapore law.
