Abstract

This article analyses the hedging demand of a firm,where hedging helps to reduce the agency costs between stockholdersand one or several risk averse agents. We show that when a merger bet-ween two firms implies less information, the hedging demand of the newfirm is generally higher than the hedging demands of the firms before mer-ger. This is due to the loss of information and because hedging allows toreduce the risk borne by several agents.
