This paper examines how investors’ belief disagreement affects the firm’s debt maturity choice. We find that in the presence of belief disagreement, the firm prefers short-term debt to long-term debt. This is because short-term debt is less risky and can attract more optimistic investors, which raises the debt price and reduces the cost of debt financing. Our result is stronger when long-term debt is more risky compared to short-term debt and investors’ belief dispersion is higher.
