Victor is a financial economist interested in corporate social responsibility and shareholder activism. His job market paper asks whether ESG-motivated investors should threaten to divest from non-responsible firms, or stay in them and engage with the management. It evaluates the effectiveness of each strategy at promoting firms’ pro-social efforts and uncovers the conditions under which they are most impactful.
