We examine the association between carbon risk and future stock price crash risk and the moderating role of climate … change disclosures in this association using a sample of firms across the world. We find that carbon risk is positively … associated with future stock price crash risk, and firm-level climate-change disclosures attenuate the positive effect of carbon …

This paper shows that a policy of partial disclosure (and, hence, of intertemporal risk … disclosure by (distressed) banks. -- Financial reporting ; disclosure ; information policy ; asset pricing ; intertemporal risk …

This study documents the prominent role of idiosyncratic risk in impeding arbitrage activities with regard to a new … future returns the “Vo/P anomaly.” We find that this Vo/P anomaly is exacerbated by idiosyncratic risk to a greater extent … than by any other arbitrage risk factor, including institutional ownership, analyst coverage, bid-ask spread, and trading …

We show theoretically that when Bayesian investors face time-series uncertainty about assets' risk exposures …, differences in their priors affect the pricing of risk in the cross-section: different priors for the same asset can generate … differences in perceived risk exposures, and thereby differences in required returns. The main testable implication is that the …

asset prices reflect both covariance risk and misperceptions of firmsapos prospects, and in which arbitrageurs trade against … mispricing. In equilibrium, expected returns are linearly related to both risk and mispricing measures (e.g., fundamental …

We develop a measure of how information events impact investors' perceptions of risk that is broadly applicable and … simultaneously conveys information on the announcer's expected future cash flows and risk profile. We empirically implement the … forecasting power for firms' risk-factor exposures, implied costs of capital, liquidity, and future investments. We also apply our …

These risk factors from the four-factor model allow us to estimate more reliable … risk-adjusted returns than in the restrictive one-factor model based on the Capital Asset Pricing Model.
