In my dissertation, I focus on identifying potential prevention strategies and evaluating their effectiveness in three misconduct contexts. In Essay 1, I investigate informed trading by CEOs during product recall decisions, which violates legal regulations, and propose a strategy to mitigate this behavior. Essay 2 examines whether Chief Sustainability Officer appointments can reduce environmental injustice, a violation of social norms. Finally, in Essay 3, I study how regulators can leverage machine learning to optimize inspection programs aimed at preventing restaurant hygiene violations. My broader research portfolio expands on this by exploring how firm operations influence misconduct and moderate its consequences.
