Banking, Corporate Governance, and Inequality

 

Thursday, May 3rd, 17:00-18:00

After Hall, Naftali Building, Tel-Aviv University

Abstract:

Corporations, in pursuit of profits or high share prices, can cause significant distortions and harm that contribute to rising inequality. Yet, governments, even in developed democracies, often tolerate and even exacerbate distortions and harm because of confusion or distorted incentives.  . Anat Admati will discuss the issues and emphasize the need for better accountability to prevent the abuse of power in all institutions, and the urgent need for better educated citizenry.  She will use the financial sector as an example of the issues.
