Abstract
This dissertation includes three chapters that empirically investigate the role of externalities in financial markets (Chapter 2 and 3), and in society during a health crisis (Chapter 4). More specifically, in Chapter 2 I explore how the risk of future collateral fire sales affects lending decisions. In Chapter 3, I examine how technology can make the collateral liquidation process more efficient, as well as the indirect consequences it may have on other assets. In Chapter 4, I study the effectiveness of government interventions in containing negative externalities during the COVID-19 outbreak in Italy. Final remarks conclude in Chapter 5.
