Information Quality and Endogenous Project Outcomes
研究了企业需要外部融资时，信息质量通过融资合同影响企业投入进而影响运营结果，发现更高的信息质量反而降低整体效率。
ABSTRACT In this study, we show that when a firm needs external financing, information quality has real effects via financing contracts on the firm's input to influence its operational outcome. Interestingly, we find that higher information quality decreases overall efficiency. Our analysis highlights the importance of considering the role of information quality in the presence of the firm's input decision upon financing contracts. In particular, information quality has a feedforward effect on the firm's real input decision via financing contracts, which in turn has a feedback effect on financing contracts and overall efficiency.
