  • Abstract
    This paper builds a basic model of studying diversified corporation discounts from information asymmetry in internal capital market. Divisional managers exaggerate the project information to corporate headquarter, which lead to misallocation investment resources and harm corporate value. By using Chinese listed firms as study sample, this paper testifies the proposition of the model.
