We develop a theory of organization design in which the firm’s structure is chosen to mitigate moral hazard problems in the selection and the implementation of projects. For a given set of projects, the “divisional structure” which gives each agent the full responsibility over a subset of projects is in general more efficient than the functional structure under which projects are implemented by...
