Finance Research Seminar

Area Administration We show that the age composition of the population can shape the speed at which businesses adopt new technologies, using evidence from mobile payments in India. Consumers’ propensity to use new payment technologies declines with age, creating stronger incentives for businesses serving younger customers to accept these technologies. We document this pattern in the rollout of a mobile payment option by a major fintech company. A model where consumer attitudes toward technology vary by age implies that business adoption is inefficiently low, with the young bearing disproportionate welfare losses from network externalities. Jointly subsidizing transaction and adoption costs restores efficiency. Subtitle: Demographics and Technology Diffusion: Evidence from Mobile Payments.

Strategy & Entrepreneurship Research Seminar

Area Administration Are real options useful for management research? This topic was hotly debated twenty years ago. Real options were said to be inapplicable to management research and to lack conceptual uniqueness. Whereas responses to the caveat about the non-uniqueness of real options were disparate, the concern about the non-applicability of the theory was considered remediable. Such responses left the impression that real options lost the debate, and the use of real options in management research started to stagnate. This paper reviews the opposing positions in the debate, establishes the conceptual uniqueness of real options, and outlines responses to the concern about the non-applicability of real options to management research to establish the promise of the theory as a key pillar for research in strategic management.

Marketing Research Seminar

Area Administration The literature on online reviews has documented the effect of different review presentation formats on consumer behavior. However, far less is known about the reasons why such formats differ across platforms. This paper addresses this ques­tion and investigates the relationship between a platform's strategy, in the form of its business model, and its incentives to provide review-based insights in different formats. Specifically, we derive a platform's optimal solicitation, processing, and presentation of consumer reviews. We envision the platform as an intermediary receiving information from previous consumers and transforming it into actionable data for prospective buyers. The platform has control in how it gathers, transforms and displays data. For example, the platform can control the precision of the multi­item scales when it gathers feedback and can decide whether to include multi-media submissions, direct QA, and machine learning-enabled summarization. While some of these interventions clearly benefit t… Subtitle: Strategic Review Presentation.

Operations Management Research Seminar

Area Administration As organizations adopt generative AI, its use can improve productivity but reliance can lead to atrophy of worker knowledge and skills over time. The challenge is how to incentivize human oversight and maintain long-run expertise. Using a principal-agent framework, we study optimal incentive design when workers can exert costly effort to verify and correct imperfect AI output, where effort both improves current performance and preserves expertise. A central managerial challenge is that improving AI quality makes oversight harder to motivate, since acceptable outcomes increasingly occur even when workers shirk. Consequently, profit-maximizing compensation can be non-monotonic in AI quality, skill, or return on effort, and organizations may even be better off, in terms of profitability, with worse AI systems. More subtle implications arise when skills decay with AI reliance. First, due to contracting frictions, we find that firms may (rationally) allow expertise to deteriorate by substituting higher effort from… Subtitle: Use it or Slowly Lose it: Expertise Atrophy with Organizational AI Usage.

Organisational Behaviour & Human Resources Research Seminar

Area Administration Interpersonal interactions are central to creativity because they can provide not only access to knowledge but also the emotional energy required to sustain intrinsic motivation for creative engagement. While prior research has emphasized knowledge transfer within work-related networks, less attention has been devoted to how interactions, particularly those outside of work, can replenish the emotional resources necessary for creative engagement and endurance. This omission is especially notable in the context of remote and hybrid work, where nonwork relationships increasingly shape the social environment surrounding creative effort. In this paper, we theorize how singular interactions with nonwork contacts can build and restore emotional energy for creativity at work. Adopting an affective primacy perspective, we introduce the construct of temporary intense interactions (TIIs): discrete, captivating exchanges characterized by emotional relevance, vulnerability, empathy, and focused attention. Although tempora… Subtitle: Interactions with Nonwork Connections as Fuel for Creative Engagement and Endurance at Work.

Finance Research Seminar

Area Administration We examine nonpecuniary preferences across a broad set of corporate actions using a representative sample of the U.S. population. Our core findings, based on large scale online surveys, are that (i) self-reported nonpecuniary concerns are large both for stock market investors and non-investors; (ii) concerns about the treatment of workers and CEO pay rank highest—higher than concerns about workforce diversity and fossil energy usage; (iii) moral universalism emerges as an important driver of nonpecuniary preferences. Combined, our findings provide new evidence on the importance of moral concerns as a key determinant of nonpecuniary preferences over corporate actions. Subtitle: Corporate Actions as Moral Issues.

Operations Management Research Seminar

Area Administration Problem definition: Charitable donations are a vital source of funding for nonprofit organizations, enabling them to carry out their mission of addressing social issues and providing support to those in need. To boost contributions, third parties often donate large sums that fundraisers use to incentivize individual donations, with one-to-one matching being the most common mechanism. However, alternative designs may lead to even higher contributions. This paper investigates the effectiveness of two design choices in the context of fundraising: (i) the incentive mechanism, focusing on the two most prevalent ones (i.e. matching and gift unlock); and (ii) the solicitation mechanism, i.e. whether donations occur simultaneously or sequentially. Methodology/Results: We introduce a stylized game-theoretical model where a fundraiser decides the design choices and corresponding design parameters to maximize overall donations. Following the fundraiser's decision, donors, endowed with a certain amount of wealth, make… Subtitle: Designing Effective Fundraising Campaigns: The Role of Incentives and Solicitation Mechanisms.

Lee Kong Chian Professorship Public Lecture

Area Administration Neglected diseases disproportionately affect developing and poor countries. Privately held biopharmaceutical firms often lack adequate financial incentives to invest in drug development for these diseases. In this paper, we build a principal-agent model to help governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) manage a multilateral alliance to develop a new drug for neglected diseases. The model consists of three parties: A funding NGO with a social welfare objective; a privately held innovation specialist (innovator) and a privately held manufacturing specialist (manufacturer). We assume the innovator can invest two types of R&D efforts: one toward efficacy and safety, which creates the likelihood of drug approval by relevant regulatory authority; and the other toward manufacturability, which decreases the marginal cost of production once successful. We characterize the optimal contract structures for the NGO to incentivize the other two parties, and the condition when the NGO should induce investment in… Subtitle: Multilateral Alliances for the Development and Distribution of Drugs for Neglected Diseases.

MPA Professorship in Maritime Business Research Seminar

Area Administration In this lecture, SMU's Recipient of the MPA Professorship in Maritime Business, Martin Jes Iversen examines the emerging trajectories for research and education within the field of maritime business. The discussion builds on Iversen’s work on maritime digitalization and strategic development, with particular emphasis on the implications of increasing technological connectivity. The growing cognitive capabilities of digital systems—especially artificial intelligence—pose significant consequences not only for the operational models of shipping companies but also for the pedagogical approaches and research paradigms employed within business schools. Iversen argues that, in parallel with rapid technological advancements, maritime research and education are uniquely positioned to address grand societal challenges.
