Operations Management Research Seminar

Area Administration African swine fever (ASF), a highly contagious disease affecting pigs, poses a significant threat to the global pork industry. To control ASF, governments typically rely on two key preventive strategies: investing in biosecurity and requiring farmers to report suspected cases. However, it remains unclear how governments should jointly design biosecurity policies and reporting incentives to maximize social welfare. We develop a game-theoretic model of a government and two heterogeneous farmers, in which the government determines biosecurity effort and reporting compensation (i.e. culling compensation conditional on reporting), while farmers decide whether to report private information about disease suspicion. We find that reporting compensation promotes reporting, while stronger biosecurity effort discourages reporting by lowering perceived external risk. Despite this tension, the structure of the optimal policy remains remarkably simple: the government first determines the target levels of biosecurity effort… Subtitle: Government Intervention for Controlling African Swine Fever: Preemptive Biosecurity and Early Reporting.

Finance Research Seminar

Area Administration Using U.S. Census Bureau matched employer-employee data, we provide the first direct empirical evidence that firms’ intangible investments raise their employees’ portable human capital, designating these firms as “human capital incubators.” We introduce a model where workers’ preferences for skill development shape labor supply, giving incubators a labor market advantage and an additional motive to invest in intangibles. Consistent with the model, incubation correlates positively with firm profitability, market power, and inflows of young workers. For top-tercile incubators, the present value of incubation is worth about 13% of firm value: roughly 43% of this value is internalized by incubating firms as wage savings, while 57% accrues as a spillover to workers and downstream employers. The aggregate externality across the whole distribution is worth 7% of total income. In a counterfactual equilibrium where workers cannot differentially price firms’ incubation capacity, diminished investment incentives lead to… Subtitle: Investing in Human Capital Incubation.
