“Is cash better with color?” – Do CEOs of color generate higher value of cash?
We investigate the impact of CEO ethnicity on the value of cash. We find that CEOs of color generate higher value of cash. For each dollar held, CEOs of color generate an additional $1.04 compared to white CEOs. Our results are robust to alternative proxies for CEOs of color, changes to model specifications, fixed effect choices, sub-sample analysis, and matched sample analysis. Since CEOs of color have to meet more rigorous standards, we conjecture that it is likely that CEOs of color are more skilled and/or show higher confidence since they have a higher bar to cross than white CEOs. This allows such CEOs to extract higher value of cash. Hence, they juice more value out of cash held.
期刊介绍:
Many economists today are concerned by the proliferation of journals and the concomitant labyrinth of research to be conquered in order to reach the specific information they require. To combat this tendency, Economics Letters has been conceived and designed outside the realm of the traditional economics journal. As a Letters Journal, it consists of concise communications (letters) that provide a means of rapid and efficient dissemination of new results, models and methods in all fields of economic research.
