@Noahpinion "It spent this money on trying to built [sic] out an oil industry that ended up producing underwhelming returns, and on some other ill-advised projects as well."

You were kind not to be specific about the ill-advised projects. E.g. a $300m 5K seater cathedral

@MoF_Ghana If you're recovering losses, is that a gain? Context matters

@BBSimons What paper is this? I'm curious to see how the authors built their control group

[Solomon Y Deku 🇬🇭 @solomondeku]

@BBSimons It's time for another Bayesian update. All is not lost

@GabbyDarko Stick to one story! Make up your mind already!

[Solomon Y Deku 🇬🇭 @solomondeku]

@GabbyDarko Where have I heard that before?

@NAkufoAddo Resign and Retire!

[Matt Clancy @mattsclancy]

Paper asks hundreds of economists to test 6 hypotheses using same dataset, then have 4 stages of feedback from peers.

In each of the hypotheses, estimates converge w/ feedback... except for the outliers who mostly seem immune to persuasion.

Generally applicable lesson maybe.

Gender diversity on banks' boards matters. We find that banks with higher board representation of women directors acted more responsibly during the COVID-19 pandemic. We develop a unique measure capturing banks’ COVID-19 responses. Open Access @JCorpFin https://t.co/7nApqytBAV

Reputation functions as a self-disciplining mechanism for issuer banks in the securitization market, but not during credit boom periods (new short paper with @solomondeku & David Marquez-Ibanez)

@NAkufoAddo @erna_solberg Building a cathedral when a non-trivial proportion of the population lives below the poverty line is unwise, and imprudent. Don't deflect!
