KIM-GINA

I am an assistant professor of Accounting at the UCLA Anderson School of Management... My current primary research interest lies in understanding the economic consequences of inter-firm information asymmetry. In particular, my research highlights the importance of the firm's public disclosures and financial reporting systems to its trade partners (e.g., suppliers and customers). My research focuses on (i) both real and information effects of inter-firm information asymmetry, (ii) interplay between public and private information channels for trade partners, and (iii) spillover effects across networks of firms.
