My
research interests are broadly in the area of Empirical Corporate
Finance. More specifically, my research focuses on financial
intermediation, banking, and capital structure. In the last
years I have been studying how bank lending relationships affect
the economic performance of firms. I have done field experiments
and panel data analysis to understand how these relationships
affect the entrepreneurs’ ability to raise funds, run
the business in a profitable way and overcome financial crisis.
In my dissertation I explore whether firms have specific targets
for the number of banks they wish to borrow from, and whether
having multiple bank relationships has an impact on the liquidity
situation of the firm. To answer these questions I study a bank
merger in Chile that provides a quasi-experiment: an exogenous
shock reducing the number of lenders to firms that were previously
borrowing from both merging banks. ________________________________________________________
