We study the impact of stochastic interest rates and capital illiquidity on investment and firm value by incorporating a widely used arbitrage-free term structure model of interest rates into a standard q theoretic framework. Our generalized q model informs us to use corporate credit-risk...

An entrepreneur faces non-diversifiable business risk and liquidity constraints. We provide a unified framework that embeds these frictions to study interdependent business start-up/entry, capital accumulation/asset sales, portfolio allocation, consumption/saving, and business exit decisions....

We develop an incomplete-markets q-theoretic model to study entrepreneurship dynamics. Precautionary motive, borrowing constraints, and capital illiquidity lead to underinvestment, conservative debt use, under-consumption, and less risky portfolio allocation. The endogenous liquid...
