We develop a novel firm-level measure of cybersecurity risk using textual analysis of cybersecurity-risk disclosures in corporate filings. The measure successfully identifies firms extensively discussing cybersecurity risk in their 10-K, displays intuitive relations with quantitative measures of...

In our paper “Cybersecurity Risk” (Florackis, C., Louca, C., Michaely, R. and M. Weber. 2023. The Review of Financial Studies, Volume 36, Issue 1, Pages 351-407; https://doi.org/10.1093/rfs/hhac024) we construct a novel firm-level measure of cybersecurity risk using textual analysis of...

We study how the differential timing of local lockdowns due to COVID-19 causally affects households' spending and macroeconomic expectations at the local level using several waves of a customized survey with more than 10,000 respondents. About 50% of survey participants report income and wealth...
