Özet: Issues pertaining to the grueling working hours and resultant sleep deprivation of financial professionals have received increasing attention from regulatory bodies and the public. Using an innovative dataset sourced from PDF time stamps, this study constructs a novel measure to identify the occurrence and degree of sleep deprivation among individual financial analysts. I next examine whether analysts’ sleep deprivation affects their job performance and find that sleep loss is significantly associated with diminished job performance. I then revisit the “protected-weekend” policy in the investment banks and find the policy exacerbates the sleep problem and impairs the performance of analysts with ex-ante severe sleep deficits.
