This paper constructs a novel measure of climate risk at the firm level by adopting a textual analysis method. The measure captures the share of conversations on earnings conference calls that center on climate- and weather-related keywords, allowing us not only to construct a total climate risk...

We empirically analyze pricing of political uncertainty in long-term property rights, guided by a theoretical model of housing assets subject to contract extension in the remote future. To identify exposure to political uncertainty, we exploit a unique variation around land lease extension...

Using new employer-employee matched data, this paper investigates the impact of uncertainty, as measured by idiosyncratic stock market volatility, on individual outcomes. We find that firms provide at best partial insurance to their workers. An increase in firm-level uncertainty is associated...
