This paper examines whether portfolio disclosure requirements for actively managed investment funds affect the investment decisions of firms owned by those funds. We argue that mandatory portfolio disclosures reduce fund managers’ incentive to collect and trade on private information, which...

Textual analysis, implemented at scale, has become an important addition to the methodological toolbox of finance. In this paper, given the proliferation of papers now using this method, we first provide an updated review of the literature while focusing on a few broad topics—social media,...
