Furthermore, the optimal contract gives the entrepreneur the option to make a larger payment at the first date (if the first-period output is high) in order to reduce the residual payment at the second date. In addition, it is optimal to restrict the entrepreneur’s ability at the first date either to make payments to himself or to borrow additional funds. These properties imply that the optimal contract is again a debt contract requiring interim payments (which can be interpreted as coupons or a sinking fund provision), with features like call (prepayment) provisions and covenants restricting the borrower’s ability to pay interim dividends and to incur additional debt.
Thus, strictly speaking, the model is again cast in a CSV setting, with “prohibitively large” investors’ verification costs, k1 . The absence of a (viable) verification technology implies that investors receive a payment only if the entrepreneur has the incentive to do so. The entrepreneur’s incentive to reward investors for their investment depends on a nonpecuniary penalty k0 that may be imposed on him. In contrast to Gale and Hellwig’s model, here the penalty k0 is chosen endogenously as an integral part of the optimal contract.
The key result of this paper is that this universal game can achieve a more efficient outcome than the one proposed by Hart and Moore (1989). The reason is that making payments and liquidation decisions contingent on these reports indirectly allows for contracts to become state contingent and therefore to further reduce inefficient liquidations.
