This research examines which firms achieve high growth in policy-dependent industries. Using the European solar photovoltaic industry as our empirical setting, we investigate the impact of policy support on the growth of independent startups and corporate-backed ventures operating across countries with diverse policy conditions. We find that producers' growth is positively linked to policy generosity, and negatively linked to policy discontinuity. Moreover, corporate-backed ventures are less affected by policy generosity compared to entrepreneurial startups, and less impacted by policy discontinuity as well. Our results underline the importance of country- and firm-level differences in analyzing firms' response to regulatory policies, and point to the need for a better understanding of the unintended consequences of policies designed to support new industries.
本研究考察了哪些企业在政策依赖型产业中实现了高增长。本文以欧洲太阳能光伏产业为实证背景,研究了政策支持对不同国家独立创业公司和企业支持企业成长的影响。我们发现生产者的增长与政策慷慨正相关,与政策不连续性负相关。此外,与创业型创业公司相比,企业支持的创业公司受政策慷慨的影响较小,受政策不连续性的影响也较小。我们的研究结果强调了在分析企业对监管政策的反应时,国家和企业层面差异的重要性,并指出需要更好地理解旨在支持新兴产业的政策的意外后果。

This paper discusses firms’ growth strategies: organic growth (internally generated growth) vs. inorganic growth (growth via acquisitions). We find that when market uncertainty drops, a decentralized firm (D-firm) is more likely to carry out a structural expansion (inorganic), while a centralized firm (C-firm) is more likely to carry out a structural reorganization (organic). When market competition subsides, a D-firm is more likely to carry out a structural reorganization or stay put, while a C-firm is more likely to carry out a structural expansion or stay put. When the market expands, a D-firm is more likely to carry out a structural expansion or stay put, while a C-firm is more likely to carry out a structural reorganization.
本文讨论了公司的增长策略:有机增长(内部增长)与无机增长(通过收购增长)。我们发现,当市场不确定性下降时,分散型企业(d型企业)更有可能进行结构性扩张(无机),而集中型企业(c型企业)更有可能进行结构性重组(有机)。当市场竞争减弱时,d型企业更有可能进行结构重组或保持不变,而c型企业更有可能进行结构扩张或保持不变。当市场扩大时,d型企业更有可能进行结构性扩张或原地不动,而c型企业更有可能进行结构性重组。

International Corporate Diversification and Financial Flexibility 国际公司多元化和财务灵活性
Pub Date : 2016-05-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2816381

If the location of firm operations is relevant for financing, multinationals should have easier access to different foreign sources of funding relative to domestic firms. I document that U.S. multinationals are more likely to borrow from a foreign bank and to issue international bonds than are U.S. domestic firms. Multinationals are less affected than domestic firms by capital market dislocations because of greater funding flexibility. Using the 2007–2009 financial crisis as a capital supply shock, I find that multinationals relied more on foreign funding sources in bank loans and consequently reduced domestic investment less than did domestic firms.

如果公司业务地点与融资有关,跨国公司应该比国内公司更容易获得不同的外国资金来源。我记录了美国跨国公司比美国国内公司更有可能从外国银行借款和发行国际债券。跨国公司受资本市场混乱的影响比国内公司小,因为它们有更大的融资灵活性。利用2007-2009年金融危机作为资本供应冲击,我发现跨国公司在银行贷款中更多地依赖外国资金来源,因此比国内企业更少地减少了国内投资。2015年1月27日收稿;编辑决定:2017年3月20日

Voluntary Disclosure Commitment and Firm Investment 自愿披露承诺与企业投资
Pub Date : 2016-02-02 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2838894
Michael J Imhof, Thomas C. Omer, S. Seavey
Theory suggests a commitment to voluntary disclosure may improve firm investment over time. Our findings support this argument. We document that voluntary disclosure commitment is associated with the more profitable exercise of firm investment opportunities. Additionally, prior research hypothesizes that voluntary disclosure can reduce both under- and over-investment. We document that commitment to voluntary disclosure is associated with greater investment efficiency. Results are robust to controls for accounting quality and other determinants of investment efficiency, as well as adjustments for endogeneity in the voluntary disclosure decision. Together, our findings highlight the benefits of voluntary disclosure commitment as they pertain to firm investment.
理论表明,随着时间的推移,自愿披露的承诺可能会改善公司的投资。我们的研究结果支持这一观点。我们证明,自愿披露承诺与公司投资机会的更有利可图的行使有关。此外,先前的研究假设,自愿披露可以减少投资不足和过度。我们证明,自愿披露的承诺与更高的投资效率有关。结果是稳健的控制会计质量和投资效率的其他决定因素,以及调整内生性的自愿披露决定。总之,我们的研究结果强调了自愿披露承诺的好处,因为它们与公司投资有关。

Capital Structure with Endogenous Liquidation Values 内生清算价值的资本结构
Pub Date : 2015-10-02 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2511379
Antonio E. Bernardo, Alex Fabisiak, I. Welch
Asset liquidation values are an important determinant of distress costs and therefore optimal capital structure. Capital structure theories typically assume liquidation values are exogenous even though they may be determined in part by the debt choices of firms in the industry (Shleifer and Vishny, 1992; Pulvino, 1998). We develop a model in which high industry debt leads to a greater supply of assets for sale by distressed firms but also lower demand for assets from relatively healthy firms because of debt overhang. Thus, high industry debt lowers expected asset liquidation values and provides an incentive for individual firms to take on less debt to take advantage of attractive future buying opportunities. The indirect effect of equilibrium asset prices tempers, and sometimes reverses, the effect of parameters on optimal capital structure choices compared to models with exogenous prices. For example, we show that firms may choose lower debt ratios when assets are more redeployable, contrary to standard intuition (Williamson, 1988).
资产清算价值是困扰成本的重要决定因素,因此也是最优资本结构的决定因素。资本结构理论通常假设清算价值是外生的,即使它们可能部分由行业内企业的债务选择决定(Shleifer和Vishny, 1992;Pulvino, 1998)。我们开发了一个模型,在这个模型中,高行业债务导致陷入困境的公司有更多的资产可供出售,但由于债务过剩,对相对健康的公司的资产需求也会降低。因此,高行业债务降低了预期的资产清算价值,并为个别公司提供了减少债务以利用有吸引力的未来购买机会的激励。与具有外生价格的模型相比,均衡资产价格的间接影响缓和了(有时是相反的)参数对最优资本结构选择的影响。例如,我们表明,当资产更具可重新配置性时,企业可能会选择较低的负债率,这与标准直觉相反(Williamson, 1988)。

Can I Trust You with My Money? The Role of Social Trust in Corporate Cash Policy 我能把钱托付给你吗?社会信任在企业现金政策中的作用
Pub Date : 2015-09-30 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2668026

We examine how corporate cash policy is related to the level of social trust in a country, with trust defined as the subjective probability that an individual assigns to the event of a potential counter-party performing an action that is beneficial or at least not harmful to that individual. We explore two competing hypotheses. On the one hand, in a high-trust country, shareholders are less concerned about managers abusing corporate cash resource for personal gains and therefore allow firms to maintain larger cash holdings. On the other hand, the reduced concern about managerial moral hazard in high-trust countries increases investors’ willingness to provide capital to firms. The resultant greater accessibility of external finance weakens firms’ precautionary saving motive and leads to lower corporate cash reserve. Our analysis of a large sample of firm-year observations from 41 countries supports the first hypothesis. Specifically, corporate cash holding is significantly and positively related to a country’s level of social trust. In addition, consistent with a substitutive relation between subjective belief and formal rules and regulations, the impact of trust is more pronounced in countries with poorer investor protection and weaker legal enforcement. We also observe an elevated effect of trust following negative shocks to investors’ confidence in formal institutions created by high-profile corporate scandals. Finally, we find that the market value of corporate cash holding is significantly higher in high-trust countries. Overall, our results highlight the importance of social trust as an informal institution in influencing corporate cash policy.
我们研究了企业现金政策如何与一个国家的社会信任水平相关,信任被定义为个人对潜在交易对手采取对该个人有益或至少无害的行动的主观概率。我们探索了两个相互竞争的假设。一方面,在一个高信任度的国家,股东不太担心管理者滥用公司现金资源谋取个人利益,因此允许公司保持较大的现金持有量。另一方面,在高信任度国家,对管理道德风险的担忧减少,增加了投资者向企业提供资本的意愿。由此产生的更大的外部融资可及性削弱了企业的预防性储蓄动机,并导致企业现金储备降低。我们对来自41个国家的大型公司年度观察样本的分析支持第一种假设。具体而言,企业现金持有量与一国社会信任水平显著正相关。此外,与主观信念与正式规章制度之间的替代关系一致,信任的影响在投资者保护较差和执法较弱的国家更为明显。我们还观察到,在备受瞩目的公司丑闻对投资者对正规机构的信心造成负面冲击后,信任的影响有所提升。最后,我们发现在高信任度国家,企业现金持有量的市场价值显著更高。总体而言,我们的研究结果强调了社会信任作为一种非正式制度在影响企业现金政策方面的重要性。

SMEs have been recognized as being great contributors to the Kenyan economy offering both employment and platform for innovative ideas. They form a larger percentage of the businesses that operate in Kenya as compared to their counterpart, the large companies. They are however faced by many constraints that hinder their performance and consequently their growth. One of the main constraints that have been highlighted over the years is the financial constraint. The need for finance is of paramount importance for the success of any firm, be it big or small. The purpose of this research was to investigate the factors that influence SMEs’ access to funding.The literature explored in this research highlight three main factors, namely firm’s, financial and entrepreneurial characteristics. These form the independent variables in the theoretical framework that influence the dependent variable, that is, access to external funding. The analysis involves primary data obtained through questionnaire and interviews and secondary data from journals, books and internet. This report contributes as a wake up call to the financial system to be more and more SMEs’ sensitive and offer financial services that are all inclusive. The financing gap, in the credit market, that exists between large and small companies need to be abridged. This can be achieved by creating an enabling environment for SME, formulating regulatory framework that is SMEs’ friendly, segmenting NSE for SMEs’ listing. SMEs are also called up to keep good financial report and to form linkages or associations to ease the burden of accessing funds.
中小企业为肯尼亚经济做出了巨大贡献,不仅提供了就业机会,还为创新提供了平台。与大公司相比,它们在肯尼亚经营的企业中所占的比例更大。然而,他们面临着许多限制,阻碍了他们的表现,从而阻碍了他们的成长。多年来突出的主要制约因素之一是财政制约。对资金的需求对任何公司的成功都是至关重要的,无论大小。本研究旨在探讨中小企业融资渠道的影响因素。本研究探讨的文献突出了三个主要因素,即企业特征、财务特征和创业特征。这些构成了理论框架中影响因变量(即获得外部资金)的自变量。分析涉及通过问卷调查和访谈获得的主要数据以及从期刊,书籍和互联网获得的次要数据。这份报告为金融系统敲响了警钟,让越来越多的中小企业更加敏感,并提供包容性的金融服务。在信贷市场上,存在于大公司和小公司之间的融资缺口需要缩小。这可以通过为中小企业创造一个有利的环境,制定对中小企业友好的监管框架,为中小企业上市细分NSE来实现。中小企业也被要求保持良好的财务报告,并形成联系或协会,以减轻获得资金的负担。

Firms’ Financial Statements and Competitiveness: An Analysis for European Non-Financial Corporations Using Micro-Based Data 企业财务报表与竞争力:基于微观数据的欧洲非金融企业分析

In the empirical analysis the use of micro-data often encounters confidentiality issues, especially when data are derived from different countries. One way to tackle this type of problems is known as “distributed micro-data analysis”, which proposes an aggregation of data with sufficient information on the distribution of the underlying micro-based data. In this paper we propose an inverse analysis, i.e. a methodology to mimic the anonymised firms’ micro-data starting from a distributed micro-dataset and using standard equations and assumptions about the distribution of the residuals that are most likely to reproduce the original micro dataset. As a result this paper offers an easy tool to analyse the firm-level financial ratios, such as firms’ leverage, profitability, and productivity performance of firms across country, sector and firm size even when firm-level data are not readily available.
在实证分析中,微数据的使用经常遇到保密问题,特别是当数据来自不同国家时。解决这类问题的一种方法被称为“分布式微数据分析”,它提出了一种数据聚合,其中包含有关底层微数据分布的充分信息。在本文中,我们提出了一种反向分析,即一种模拟匿名企业微观数据的方法,该方法从分布式微观数据集开始,并使用关于最有可能重现原始微观数据集的残差分布的标准方程和假设。因此,本文提供了一个简单的工具来分析公司层面的财务比率,例如公司的杠杆率,盈利能力,以及跨国家,行业和公司规模的公司的生产力表现,即使公司层面的数据不容易获得。

The Impact of Working Capital Financing Costs on the Efficiency of Trade Credit 营运资金融资成本对贸易信贷效率的影响
Pub Date : 2015-07-28 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2437739

One of the arguments given to explain the widespread use of costly trade credit in supply chains is that trade credit enhances efficiency by resolving moral hazard problems. In this paper, we consider the impact of demand shocks on this efficiency role of trade credit. We show that as the probability of a negative demand shock increases, the amount of trade credit necessary to resolve moral hazard also increases. In other words, as economic conditions weaken (i.e. as the probability of low demand increases), more trade credit is required to coordinate the supply chain. The working capital financing costs associated with trade credit can impose a burden that makes it infeasible to coordinate the supply chain. We show that an appropriately designed reverse factoring program can provide suppliers with access to inexpensive credit necessary to finance the working capital associated with trade credit and restore supply chain efficiency.
解释供应链中广泛使用昂贵的贸易信贷的一个论点是,贸易信贷通过解决道德风险问题提高了效率。本文考虑了需求冲击对贸易信贷效率作用的影响。我们表明,随着负需求冲击的可能性增加,解决道德风险所需的贸易信贷数量也会增加。换句话说,随着经济条件的减弱(即低需求的可能性增加),需要更多的贸易信贷来协调供应链。与贸易信贷相关的营运资金融资成本可能造成负担,使供应链协调变得不可行。我们表明,设计适当的逆向保理程序可以为供应商提供获得与贸易信贷相关的营运资金融资所需的廉价信贷,并恢复供应链效率。

The working capital financing costs associated with trade credit can impose a burden that makes it infeasible to coordinate the supply chain. We show that an appropriately designed reverse factoring program can provide suppliers with access to inexpensive credit necessary to finance the working capital associated with trade credit and restore supply chain efficiency.","PeriodicalId":236717,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Other Microeconomics: Intertemporal Firm Choice & Growth","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122733411","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}

We study international mergers and acquisitions from a cross-cultural perspective. We examine in particular (i) which types of cultures are more likely to carry out acquisitions in a different culture to their home society and (ii) which are more likely to complete deals. We use the culture clusters developed by the GLOBE study to classify acquirer and target countries into culturally similar groups. In a sample of 130,000 transactions worldwide, we find that result-oriented cultures are less likely to attempt an acquisition outside their home culture cluster and are less likely to complete announced deals. Cross-cultural acquisitions are also less likely to occur and less likely to complete if the acquirer is from a traditional-oriented culture. Acquirers from people-oriented cultures are more likely to make a cross-cultural acquisition and complete announced deals.
我们从跨文化的角度研究国际并购。我们特别研究了(i)哪种类型的文化更有可能在与其母国社会不同的文化中进行收购,以及(ii)哪种类型的文化更有可能完成交易。我们使用GLOBE研究开发的文化集群将收购国和目标国划分为文化相似的群体。在全球13万笔交易的样本中,我们发现,结果导向的文化不太可能尝试在本国文化集群之外进行收购,也不太可能完成已宣布的交易。如果收购者来自传统文化,跨文化收购也不太可能发生,也不太可能完成。来自以人为本文化的收购者更有可能进行跨文化收购并完成已宣布的交易。
