Seminar: Mark Westerfield (UW Foster)

Part of the Micro Theory Seminar series, hosted by Jacques Lawarrée Title: The Optimal Duration of Incentives and Cash Flows by Felix Feng, Robin Luo, and Mark Westerfield Abstract: We model an agent who manages assets and can either invest in long-term asset quality or short-term cash flow, and both actions add value, while the principal can only observe cash flows, not the inputs or asset quality. Repeated incentives for short-term cash flows add up to incentives for asset quality. The optimal contract begins with weak, back-loaded incentives and alternates between those and stronger, front-loaded incentives. Incentives become more front-loaded and more intensified after losses, and cash flows are endogenously mean-reverting, resulting in a tight link between the duration of incentives and the duration of cash flows. We characterize how those durations respond to cash flow shocks, linking several strands of empirical work and providing new testable predictions. Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Savery Hall (SAV). Campus room: SAV 410. Accessibility Contact: econdept@uw.edu. Event Types: Academics. Friday, May 30, 2025, 1:30 PM – 3:00 PM.
