How to incorporate hard-to-value assets into the wealth tax? We analyze the effect of an optimal wealth tax on risk-taking behavior and welfare when investors do not only have the standard portfolio choice with a well-diversified market portfolio, but can alternatively choose to invest all their wealth into a non-diversifiable, indivisible project. The latter is interpreted as entrepreneurial investment into a small, nonlisted firm for which the actual value is hard to measure and non-verifiable. For such firms, real-world wealth tax systems base the wealth tax on deterministic book values. We show that this tax treatment does not distort the choice of projects if the tax is set optimally with an imputed interest rate on book values, actually larger than the risk-free market rate of return. The market equilibrium and a proportional tax on the market portfolio will ensure an efficient risk allocation between private and public consumption and across projects. Failing to apply an imputed inflation of book values, instead, gives rise to an implicit subsidy on entrepreneurial activity and distorts investment. Our findings also have implications for taxation of hard-to-value assets under capital-gains and inheritance taxation.
如何将难以估价的资产纳入财富税?我们分析了最优财富税对风险行为和福利的影响,当投资者不仅有标准的投资组合选择与一个良好的多元化的市场投资组合,而且可以选择将他们的所有财富投资到一个不可多样化的,不可分割的项目。后者被解释为对小型非上市公司的创业投资,其实际价值难以衡量且无法验证。对于这些公司来说,现实世界的财富税制度是基于确定的账面价值来征收财富税的。我们表明,如果税收与账面价值的估算利率(实际上大于无风险市场回报率)最优设定,这种税收待遇不会扭曲项目的选择。市场均衡和对市场组合按比例征税将确保私人和公共消费之间以及项目之间的有效风险分配。相反,如果没有将账面价值计入通胀,就会对企业活动产生隐性补贴,并扭曲投资。我们的研究结果也对资本利得税和遗产税下难以估价的资产征税有启示。

Forgiveness versus Financing: The Determinants and Impact of SME Debt Forbearance in Japan 宽免与融资:日本中小企业债务容忍的决定因素及影响
Pub Date : 2017-05-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3106512

This paper empirically examines the impact of Japan's debt forbearance policies with regard to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) stipulated in the "Act concerning Temporary Measures to Facilitate Financing for SMEs." Using unique Japanese firm survey data that identify firms that received "financing" (such as through the deferral of debt repayments) and firms that received "debt forgiveness" (such as through a reduction in principal and/or interest), we examine the determinants and the effects of debt forbearance to test the theoretical predictions of Krugman's (1988) "financing vs. forgiving a debt overhang" analysis. We find, first, that banks choose debt forgiveness for firms that are more creditworthy and more profitable, which is consistent with the theory of debt overhang. Second, among firms that received debt forbearance, those that had received debt forgiveness had better access to new loans and showed superior ex-post performance than those that received financing, which is also consistent with the theory of debt overhang. Third, compared to firms that had not received any debt forbearance, firms that had received financing were more leveraged and exhibited worse performance, especially those whose forborne loans were covered by public credit guarantees, while firms that had received debt forgiveness exhibited better performance, especially those without public credit guarantees. This suggests that the effectiveness of the SME forbearance policy is adversely affected by the moral hazard generated by public credit guarantee programs.
本文实证考察了日本《中小企业融资便利暂行措施法》中规定的债务暂缓政策对中小企业的影响。利用独特的日本企业调查数据,确定了获得“融资”(如通过延期偿还债务)和获得“债务豁免”(如通过减少本金和/或利息)的企业,我们检查了债务容忍的决定因素和影响,以检验克鲁格曼(1988)的理论预测。"融资vs减免债务"的分析。我们发现,首先,银行会选择对信用更高、盈利能力更强的企业进行债务减免,这与债务过剩理论是一致的。其次,在获得债务减免的企业中,获得债务减免的企业比获得融资的企业更容易获得新贷款,事后绩效也优于获得融资的企业,这也与债务积压理论相一致。第三,与没有获得任何债务减免的公司相比,获得融资的公司杠杆率更高,业绩更差,尤其是那些获得公共信用担保的公司,而获得债务减免的公司表现更好,尤其是那些没有公共信用担保的公司。这表明,公共信用担保项目产生的道德风险对中小企业宽容政策的有效性产生了不利影响。

CEO Power and Nonprofit Performance: Evidence from Chinese Philanthropic Foundations CEO权力与非营利组织绩效:来自中国慈善基金会的证据
Pub Date : 2017-04-25 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2958438

CEO power and its implications have been largely neglected in research on nonprofit governance. This lack of attention is surprising considering the crucial role of CEOs and the importance of power analysis in understanding governance. This paper is an initial attempt to address this gap by developing a two-dimensional framework for conceptualizing CEOs structural power and strategic power in nonprofits and proposing several indicators to operationalize these two kinds of power. Drawing data from an original survey on 163 CEOs of Chinese foundations, this study is among the first to specifically assess how much power a CEO has and the relationship between a CEO’s power and nonprofit effectiveness. My findings suggest that CEOs structural power is positively associated with private donations while strategic power has a negative impact on nonprofits’ social performance.
在非营利组织治理的研究中,CEO权力及其影响在很大程度上被忽视了。考虑到ceo的关键角色和权力分析在理解治理中的重要性,这种缺乏关注令人惊讶。本文是解决这一差距的初步尝试,通过建立一个二维框架来概念化非营利组织中ceo的结构权力和战略权力,并提出了几个指标来实施这两种权力。这项研究的数据来源于对163位中国基金会CEO的原始调查,是第一个专门评估CEO拥有多少权力以及CEO权力与非营利组织效率之间关系的研究之一。研究结果表明,ceo的结构权力与私人捐赠呈正相关,而战略权力对非营利组织的社会绩效具有负向影响。

Prosocial Crowdlending in Kenya 肯尼亚的亲社会众筹
Pub Date : 2017-04-06 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.2969750
Alberto Ibarra, Natàlia Cugueró-Escofet, M. Canela
The crowdfunding industry has emerged in the past few years as one of the most promising alternative financing options. Lending and donating operations accounted for 81% of the crowdfunding industry's $34.4 billion total funding volume in 2015. Kiva Zip, a prosocial program, created an online platform that provides 0% interest peer-to-peer loans and has features in common with lending and donating crowdfunding platforms. This program is a spin-off of Kiva.org. Although both platforms have a similar objective and modus operandi, they differ primarily because Kiva.org has a figure called a field partner, who is the intermediary between borrowers and lenders, while Kiva Zip has no field partners but does have so-called trustees, who provide support to borrowers but do not act as intermediaries for resources or charge for their services. The authors thoroughly analyzed Kiva Zip's operations in Kenya for the years from 2011 to 2015. Kiva Zip has stopped posting new campaigns in Kenya but has continued to collect payment for previously delivered loans. We studied in detail the impact that lenders, borrowers and trustees had on the platform's performance. In addition, we analyzed the different stages of a campaign on Kiva Zip: when a campaign is posted, when it is funded and when the loan is paid back. This analysis may provide insight into the levers that drove the performance of Kiva Zip in Kenya, which in turn could have enabled the organization to identify areas for improvement in order to continue operating in the country. In addition, we have identified relevant theoretical frameworks for analyzing prosocial crowdlending in greater depth.
在过去的几年里,众筹行业已经成为最有前途的融资选择之一。2015年,众筹行业344亿美元的总融资额中,借贷和捐赠业务占81%。Kiva Zip是一个亲社会项目,它创建了一个在线平台,提供0%利息的点对点贷款,与借贷和捐赠众筹平台有一些共同之处。这个项目是从Kiva.org衍生出来的。虽然这两个平台有相似的目标和运作方式,但它们的主要区别在于Kiva.org有一个被称为现场合作伙伴的人物,他是借款人和贷款人之间的中介,而Kiva Zip没有现场合作伙伴,但有所谓的受托人,他们为借款人提供支持,但不充当资源中介或收取服务费用。作者彻底分析了Kiva Zip在2011年至2015年期间在肯尼亚的业务。Kiva Zip已停止在肯尼亚发布新的宣传活动,但仍在继续收取以前交付的贷款的款项。我们详细研究了贷款人、借款人和受托人对平台绩效的影响。此外,我们还分析了Kiva Zip上活动的不同阶段:发布活动、获得资助和偿还贷款的时间。这种分析可以提供对推动Kiva Zip在肯尼亚绩效的杠杆的洞察,从而使该组织能够确定需要改进的领域,以便在该国继续运营。此外,我们还确定了更深入分析亲社会众贷的相关理论框架。

Household Matters: Revisiting the Returns to Capital Among Female Micro-Entrepreneurs 家庭事务:重新审视女性微型企业家的资本回报率
Pub Date : 2017-04-01 DOI: 10.1257/AERI.20180444

Multiple field experiments report positive financial returns to capital shocks for male and not female microentrepreneurs. But these analyses overlook the fact that female entrepreneurs often reside with male entrepreneurs. Using data from experiments in India, Sri Lanka, and Ghana, we show that the observed gender gap in microenterprise responses does not reflect lower returns on investment, when measured at the household level. Instead, the absence of a profit response among female-run enterprises reflects the fact that women’s capital is typically invested into their husband’s enterprise. We cannot reject equivalence of household-level income gains for male and female capital shock recipients. (JEL G31, J16, L25, L26, O12, O16)
多个实地实验表明,男性而非女性微型企业家从资本冲击中获得了积极的财务回报。但这些分析忽略了一个事实,即女性企业家经常与男性企业家住在一起。利用印度、斯里兰卡和加纳的实验数据,我们表明,在家庭层面上衡量时,观察到的微型企业反应中的性别差距并不反映较低的投资回报。相反,在女性经营的企业中没有利润反应反映了这样一个事实,即女性的资本通常投资于其丈夫的企业。我们不能拒绝接受资本冲击的男性和女性的家庭收入增长相等。(j31, j16, l25, l26, o12, o16)

Could Technology Entrepreneurs Rely on Crowdfunding (Kickstarter) As a Source of Finance? The Case of the Netherlands 科技企业家能否依靠众筹(Kickstarter)作为融资来源?荷兰案例
Pub Date : 2017-03-10 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2928791

Taking technology-related projects launched from the Netherlands at Kickstarter into account, this study aims to explore the factors influencing crowdfunding success, in terms of funding level. The study shows the significant and positive influence of number of project backers (investors) on funding level. Besides, the significant and positive influence of factors connected to level of preparation of entrepreneurs, namely, number of updates and images posted by entrepreneurs, the length of project description and including a video on a project webpage, on funding level is found. As the study differentiates between level of preparation (quality) of entrepreneurs and network, the results emphasize on more crucial role of network size compared to level of preparation of entrepreneurs in raising money. Some recommendations for technology entrepreneurs who want to benefit from crowdfunding and future research paths are provided at the end.
本研究以荷兰在Kickstarter上发起的技术相关项目为例,从融资水平的角度探讨影响众筹成功的因素。研究表明,项目支持者(投资者)数量对融资水平有显著的正向影响。此外,发现与企业家准备水平相关的因素,即企业家发布的更新和图片数量,项目描述的长度和在项目网页上包含视频,对融资水平有显著的正影响。由于研究区分了企业家的准备水平(质量)和网络,结果强调了网络规模在融资中比企业家的准备水平更重要的作用。最后为希望从众筹中获益的科技创业者和未来的研究路径提供了一些建议。

International Strategies of Business Incubation: The USA, Germany and Russia 企业孵化的国际战略:美国、德国和俄罗斯
Pub Date : 2017-02-16 DOI: 10.5585/IJI.V5I1.130
E. Tsaplin, Yulia Pozdeeva
In this paper we examine strategies of business incubation in the following countries: the USA, Germany and Russia using both a comparative theoretical analysis of different performance criteria of business incubators and interviewing experts who work directly with startup companies. We find that there are more differences than similarities between the strategies of business incubation in these countries. The USA prove to be far ahead of Germany and especially Russia in supporting start-ups . The study might impact a business practice in the way of clarifying the most significant characteristics and general trends of business incubation strategies in the countries mentioned to take them into account in the process of launching and developing startup companies in one or another country.
在本文中,我们研究了以下国家的企业孵化策略:美国、德国和俄罗斯,采用了对企业孵化器不同绩效标准的比较理论分析,并采访了直接与创业公司合作的专家。我们发现,这些国家的创业孵化策略之间的差异大于相似之处。事实证明,在支持初创企业方面,美国远远领先于德国,尤其是俄罗斯。这项研究可能会对商业实践产生影响,因为它阐明了上述国家中企业孵化战略的最重要特征和总体趋势,以便在一个或另一个国家启动和发展初创公司的过程中考虑到这些特征和趋势。

Marketplace Lending of SMEs 中小企业市场贷款
Pub Date : 2017-01-05 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.2894574
Douglas J. Cumming, Lars Hornuf
Peer-to-business lending refers to online platforms facilitating loans from individuals to smalland medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). We conjecture that easy-to-understand risk ratings conveyed by the platform play a pronounced role in influencing the borrowing success of SMEs and that more sophisticated financial information and adverse selection are largely absent in these markets. We introduce a dataset of 414 SME marketplace loans and 8,236 online loan days to test these propositions. The data examined provide strong support for the importance of simple platform ratings in influencing investor behavior, while the effect of more detailed financial information is less pronounced.
个人对企业贷款是指为个人向中小企业提供贷款的网络平台。我们推测,平台传达的易于理解的风险评级在影响中小企业的借贷成功方面发挥了显著作用,而这些市场基本上缺乏更复杂的金融信息和逆向选择。我们引入了414个中小企业市场贷款和8236个在线贷款日的数据集来测试这些命题。研究数据有力地支持了简单的平台评级在影响投资者行为方面的重要性,而更详细的财务信息的影响则不那么明显。

Perceptions and Price: Evidence from CEO Presentations at IPO Roadshows 认知与价格:来自IPO路演CEO演讲的证据
Pub Date : 2017-01-04 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2611756

This paper examines the relation between cognitive perceptions of management and firm valuation. We develop a composite measure of investor perception using 30-second content-filtered video clips of initial public offering (IPO) roadshow presentations. We show that this measure, designed to capture viewers’ overall perceptions of a CEO, is positively associated with pricing at all stages of the IPO (proposed price, offer price and end of first day of trading). The result is robust to controls for traditional determinants of firm value. We also show that firms with highly perceived management are more likely to be matched to high-quality underwriters. In further exploratory analyses, we find the impact is greater for firms with more uncertain language in their written S-1. Taken together, our results provide evidence that investors’ instinctive perceptions of management are incorporated into their assessments of firm value.
本文考察了管理认知知觉与企业估值之间的关系。我们利用首次公开发行(IPO)路演演示的30秒内容过滤视频剪辑开发了投资者感知的综合衡量标准。我们表明,这一旨在捕捉观众对首席执行官的整体看法的措施与IPO所有阶段的定价(建议价格、发行价和第一天交易结束)呈正相关。结果对传统企业价值决定因素的控制具有鲁棒性。我们还表明,管理水平高的公司更有可能与高质量的承销商匹配。在进一步的探索性分析中,我们发现在书面S-1中使用更多不确定语言的公司影响更大。综上所述,我们的结果提供了证据,证明投资者对管理层的本能感知被纳入了他们对公司价值的评估。

We develop a composite measure of investor perception using 30-second content-filtered video clips of initial public offering (IPO) roadshow presentations. We show that this measure, designed to capture viewers’ overall perceptions of a CEO, is positively associated with pricing at all stages of the IPO (proposed price, offer price and end of first day of trading). The result is robust to controls for traditional determinants of firm value. We also show that firms with highly perceived management are more likely to be matched to high-quality underwriters. In further exploratory analyses, we find the impact is greater for firms with more uncertain language in their written S-1. Taken together, our results provide evidence that investors’ instinctive perceptions of management are incorporated into their assessments of firm value.","PeriodicalId":11881,"journal":{"name":"Entrepreneurship & Finance eJournal","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91175598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Borrowing Challenges for Minorities: How Lending Technologies Affect Discrimination in the SME Credit Market 少数民族的借贷挑战:贷款技术如何影响中小企业信贷市场的歧视

Can relationship-lending technology be used to overcome discrimination, as the Allport’s (1954) contact hypothesis suggests? Or should minorities stay away from the bank? Using a sample of SMEs from the Survey of Small Business Finances 2003, this article shows that though relationship-lending technology generally reduces the spread and probability of the need to provide collateral for a loan, use of such technology actually leads to greater discrimination against minorities. Asians are the most negatively affected by this effect, followed by Afro-Americans and Hispanics. However, this effect occurs only when the length of the relationship is short; it tends to disappear when relationships are longer. With regard to the area in which a firm is located, there is less discrimination in areas with high minority population rates than in areas with low minority population rates. These results are robust with regard to the self-selection problem.
关系借贷技术能否像Allport(1954)的接触假说所建议的那样,被用来克服歧视?或者少数民族应该远离银行吗?本文以2003年《小企业财务调查》中的中小企业为样本,表明尽管关系贷款技术通常降低了贷款需要提供抵押品的范围和可能性,但这种技术的使用实际上导致了对少数群体的更大歧视。亚洲人受到的负面影响最大,其次是非洲裔美国人和西班牙裔美国人。然而,这种效应只发生在关系持续时间较短的情况下;当关系越长,它就越容易消失。就公司所在的地区而言,少数民族人口比率高的地区比少数民族人口比率低的地区歧视较少。这些结果对于自我选择问题是稳健的。
