Abstract

In this paper, we examine whether firms with greater information flow, i.e., which reveal more firm-specific information through their idiosyncratic stock price movements, are associated with lower investment cash flow sensitivity. Using a sample of 450 French non-financial firms over the period 2006-2022, we find results consistent with the idea that greater information flow decreases information asymmetry, thus allowing firms to carry out investments more efficiently as they depend less on the availability of internal cash flows.
