We present a dynamic model of an IPO market in which firms go public to raise capital for investment. The original shareholders have inside information with respect to the quality of their firm's investment opportunities, and they decide whether to go public, how much capital to raise and...

An enduring puzzle is why credit ratings are coarse indicators of issuer credit quality, with a relatively small number of ratings categories being used to describe credit qualities that lie in a continuum. We develop a theoretical model to explain why ratings are coarse even though coarseness...
