    Real Estate Economics and Climate Risk with Johannes Stroebel

    In this episode of The Brattle Exchange, Johannes Stroebel, the David S. Loeb Professor of Finance at NYU Stern School of Business and Director of the Climate Finance Initiative, joins Brattle Senior Associate Bennet Berger to delve into the intersections of real estate economics, discount rates, and climate risk. Bennet and Johannes cover several topics within Johannes’ extensive and innovative research background, from analyzing asymmetric information in the housing market – which he discussed in a 2016 Brattle Prize-winning paper – to his work on long-term discount rates and how they impact cost-benefit analyses involving investments in climate risk adaptation. The pair also discuss some of Johannes’ recent work on the extent to which house prices are affected by climate risk. Johannes shares his findings that the price discount for housing that is exposed to climate risk may be larger during periods when there is increased attention on climate risk.

    Venture Capital and Private Equity with Ilya Strebulaev

    Dr. Ilya Strebulaev, the David S. Lobel Professor of Private Equity and a Professor of Finance at Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business, joins Brattle Principal Sujay Dave to discuss his research and extensive experience in corporate finance, private equity, and venture capital. In this episode, Ilya discusses how he developed a framework for capital structure decisions that incorporates dynamic decision-making and thus more accurately reflects real-world results. He explains how his early corporate finance work – together with his position at Stanford GSB, located at the heart of Silicon Valley – led to his founding of the Stanford GSB Venture Capital Initiative. At the Initiative, Ilya and his team have compiled and analyzed a one-of-a-kind database with information from hundreds of venture capital firms, providing key information and insights on an industry that is typically very private. In the episode, Ilya highlights the accomplishments of the Initiative under his leadership over the past decade. Ilya also previews his recently released book, “The Venture Mindset,” which summarizes decision-making principles derived from his and coauthor Alex Dang’s experience with the venture capital space. The book also includes practical applications, making it widely applicable in settings beyond venture capital.
