Nguyen Submitted to the Department of Economics on May 15, 2015, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Abstract This thesis consists of three chapters on banking and local credit markets. The first chapter studies the relationship between bank-specific capital and credit access in a new setting: bank branch closings in markets where the branch network is dense. Existing regulation in the U.S. is targeted toward areas with few branches where closings inhibit physical access to the branch network. I show that, even in crowded markets, closings can have large effects on local credit supply.

  • Are Credit Markets Still Local? Evidence from Bank Branch Closings†
    American Economic Journal: Applied Economics 2019, 11(1): 1–32 https://doi.org/10.1257/app.20170543 Are Credit Markets Still Local? Evidence from Bank Branch Closings† By Hoai-Luu Q. Nguyen* This paper studies whether distance shapes credit allocation by esti- mating the impact of bank branch closings during the 2000s on local access to credit. To generate plausibly exogenous variation in the incidence of closings, I use an instrument based on within-county, tract-level variation in exposure to post-merger branch consolida- tion. Closings lead to a persistent decline in local small business lending. Annual originations fall by $453,000 after a closing, off a baseline of $4.7 million, and remain depressed for up to six years. The effects are very localized, dissipating within six miles, and are especially severe during the financial crisis.

( ) Over the last few decades, however, technological changes have dramatically low- ered the costs of transmitting and processing information. This raises the question of whether distance still matters for informationally intensive activities. The banking sector is a natural environment for assessing this question since an extensive body of research holds that informational asymmetries are central to credit allocation e.g., Akerlof 1970 and Stiglitz and Weiss 1981 and information technol- ( ) ogies have had an especially pronounced impact there.

    Running Head: TALKING TO STRANGERS 1 Talking to Strangers The Use of a Cameraman in The Office and What It Reveals about Communication Sarah Stockslager A Senior Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation in the Honors Program Liberty University Fall 2010 TALKING TO STRANGERS 2 Acceptance of Senior Honors Thesis This Senior Honors Thesis is accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation from the Honors Program of Liberty University. ______________________________ Lynnda S. Beavers, Ph.D. Thesis Chair ______________________________ Robert Lyster, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ James A. Borland, Th.D. Committee Member ______________________________ Brenda Ayres, Ph.D. Honors Director ______________________________ Date TALKING TO STRANGERS 3 Abstract In the television mock-documentary The Office, co-workers Jim and Pam tell the cameraman they are dating before they tell their fellow co-workers in the office. The cameraman sees them getting engaged before anyone in the office has a clue. Even the news of their pregnancy is witnessed first by the camera crew. Jim and Pam’s boss, Michael, and other employees, such as Dwight, Angela and others, also share this trend of self-disclosure to the cameraman. They reveal secrets and embarrassing stories to the cameraman, showing a private side of themselves that most of their co-workers never see. First the term “mock-documentary” is explained before specifically discussing the The Office. Next the terms and theories from scholarly sources that relate the topic of self-disclosure to strangers are reviewed. Consequential strangers, weak ties, the stranger- on-a-train phenomenon, and para-social interaction are studied in relation to the development of a new listening stranger theory.
