Abstract
Financial microeconometrics is the application of microeconometric methods in corporate finance and accounting research. This introductory chapter focuses on the place of financial microeconometrics within the framework of corporate finance, accounting, corporate law, financial management, corporate governance, statistical methods, and financial econometrics. Reflections on the theory of corporate finance are complemented by reflections on its data-oriented counterpart—i.e., empirical corporate finance. The final part of the chapter is devoted to issues regarding the samples of microdata used in corporate finance and accounting research.
