This financing gap is driven by lower and more volatile resale values of early-stage EVs\, stemming from rapid technological advancements in EV-specific technologies. This technological obsolescence raises collateral risk\, leading to tighter loan terms. Othe r factors\, such as buyer preferences\, socioeconomic traits\, government incentives\, and macroeconomic conditions\, have minimal impact. Our findi ngs show that technological carbon-transition risks are reflected in house hold finance products.\n DTSTART:20250905T143000Z DTEND:20250905T154500Z LOCATION:Room 340\, Bronfman Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1G5\, 1001 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Desmarais Global Finance Research Centre (DGFRC) Seminar: Jan Bena URL:/desautels/channels/event/desmarais-global-finance -research-centre-dgfrc-seminar-jan-bena-366959 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
