Research Abstract |
In this reseach,I examine the growing empirical literature on the analysts' forecasts and conflicts of interest in the U.S.Three reasons are often cited for analyst optimism.First, prior research argues that analysts positively bias their forecasts and recommendations to stay on friendly terms with firm management.Second,it is also argued that analysts who work for integrated investment banking houses could come under implicit pressure to publish more favorable research about their employers' current or potential clients to help boost investment banking fee revenue. Third, analysts could come under pressure to help generate brokerage commissions, which provides incentives for analysts to present positively biased opinions. Despite these incentives to bias their forecasts, analysts are also concerned about their career advancement that can be facilitated by acquiring a higher reputation through more accurate forecasts. Analysts appear to face a dilemma caused by different incentives.
