Researchers from the Business Research Unit (BRU-Iscte) will be at MUHNAC to share their research results and projects.
Irene Ciccarino will talk about the value created by a social innovation hub (Obidos Hub) whose main mission is to generate opportunities for training young people while increasing their civic participation and making them aware of activities that create value for society and the environment. ; and Rita Guerra, coordinator of the kNOwHATE project, will represent the Associate Laboratory SocioDigital Lab for Public Policy and challenge adults to identify examples of online hate speech, through a Quiz. Check the details of each activity below.

To Unlock Potentials and Democratize Knowledge: Training through Skills Volunteering (21:00-23:00)

It will be necessary to imagine that society is a living being called “People” who can listen and make decisions. The aim of the activity is to create a well-founded recommendation that convinces “People” to take the best possible course of action. 1 (one) challenge will be presented on each of the following topics 1) Young people and the job market; 2) Production, consumption, society, and the planet; 3) Links with a community. The team must create 1 (one) recommendation that brings together these three challenges. The concepts of scientific knowledge, sustainability, social innovation, and skill-based volunteering will be presented in the form of clues that will help participants develop recommendations. Each round will have a random combination of challenges and clues. Consequently, the recommendations will be diversified and will form a wall for inspiration for sustainable solutions. The rounds of handson activities will be interspersed with brief presentations on the following themes:1) sustainability, 2) social innovation, and 3) skills-based volunteering. The content will be transmitted in a simple way for practical use, allowing participants to associate with their knowledge and practice to apply this knowledge in their lives.

Are you better than the algorithm at detecting online hate speech? (21:00-23:00)

Online hate speech is widespread on many social media. The kNOwHATE project (CERV-2021-EQUAL)* aims to understand online hate speech, detect it automatically (through an algorithm) and fight it. In this Quiz, you will have access to real situations/comments already analyzed by human annotators. We challenge you to identify them as being – or not – examples of online hate speech. Can you do it?

Title: Analytics of the Government Spending Multiplier with Quantitative Easing
This seminar explores the government expenditure multiplier within the zero lower bound scenario, utilizing the New Keynesian DSGE model with Calvo pricing, specifically the four equations NK model introduced by Sims et al. in 2021. Our study aims to ascertain the government spending multiplier and evaluate the welfare implications of fiscal stimulus during interest rate constraints, all while incorporating quantitative easing as a key element within the central bank’s toolkit.

Title: CEO equity incentives and workplace misconduct
Abstract:
We examine the relation between CEO risk taking equity incentives, as captured by CEO vega, and workplace misconduct. Workplace misconduct includes health and safety violations, non- compliance with labor laws, and other violations broadly related to labor exploitation, and it results in significant economic costs. Using regression analysis, matched sample tests, and a quasi-natural experiment we find a positive relation between CEO vega and workplace misconduct. We identify a reduction in discretionary expenses and increased employee workload as channels through which CEO vega affects workplace misconduct.

Title: Changes to Accounting Policies, Corporate Transparency and Guaranteed Loans during the Covid-19 Crisis
Abstract: We show that a seemingly innocuous change to accounting policies—extending the filing period of financial statements during the Covid-19 crisis—increased late filers’ access to public guaranteed loans (PGLs) and reduced financial reporting quality (FRQ). We conjecture that, differently than in non-crisis periods, firms delayed filing (i) to exercise reporting subjectivity, useful for obtaining relief mechanisms whose access is based on accounting information; and (ii) because the costs of reduced timeliness are offset by the availability of PGLs. Our analyses on a sample covering close to the universe of Italian SMEs confirm that late filers increased access to PGLs and lowered FRQ. These findings are stronger in industries relying more on relief mechanisms, and for firms whose cost-structures incentivized subjective reporting choices to benefit from post-Covid-19 policy changes. Exploring the channels of reporting subjectivity, we find that late filers increased accrual-based components of income and expenses, reduced amortization charges, and increased capitalization of intangibles. Our key policy implication is that changes to accounting policies during crises are not cost-neutral. This is particularly true when governments concurrently introduce multiple relief mechanisms, and firms do not bear the costs of diminished information quality.
