This paper examines how tax policy should be designed to best encourage entrepreneurial activity in start-up firms. We begin by describing several presumed market failures affecting entrepreneurial firms that would lead to an under-provision of entrepreneurial activity: 1) information spillovers from innovations in entrepreneurial firms to other firms, 2) positive externalities to consumers from innovative new products sold by these firms, and 3) lemons problems in the market for both debt and equity issued by these firms. We then analyze the degree to which various tax policy measures can alleviate these failures. A key complication we focus on is the inability of the government to observe which, and the degree to which, any given start-up firm is entrepreneurial. This forces policy to target behavioral differences between entrepreneurial and non-entrepreneurial start-ups. We presume that start-up firms, to the degree they are entrepreneurial, face upfront costs in developing and marketing a new technology, and in the process face substantial risk. Our analysis then suggests the use of refundable tax savings from business losses in start-ups together with a compensating surtax on the profits of start-ups (needed in the case of lemons problems) to help alleviate the various market failures faced by entrepreneurial start-ups.
本文探讨了如何设计税收政策以最好地鼓励创业公司的创业活动。我们首先描述影响创业公司的几种假定的市场失灵,它们会导致创业活动的供应不足:1)创业公司的创新对其他公司的信息溢出,2)这些公司销售的创新新产品对消费者的正外部性,以及3)这些公司发行的债务和股权在市场上的柠檬问题。然后,我们分析了各种税收政策措施可以缓解这些失败的程度。我们关注的一个关键问题是,政府无法观察到任何一家初创公司是哪一家,以及在多大程度上具有创业精神。这迫使政策针对创业型和非创业型初创企业之间的行为差异。我们认为,创业型公司在开发和营销新技术时面临前期成本,并在此过程中面临巨大风险。然后,我们的分析建议,利用初创企业亏损中可退还的税收储蓄,以及对初创企业的利润征收补偿性附加税(在柠檬问题的情况下需要),以帮助缓解创业型初创企业面临的各种市场失灵。

Assessment of Compliance With OHADA Uniform Accounting Act by Public Limited Companies 公共有限责任公司遵守OHADA统一会计法的评估
Pub Date : 2016-06-07 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3433424
Michael Forzeh Fossung
Francophone African countries have made a tremendous effort in harmonising domestic standards and reporting with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Moving from two distinct OCAM streams to two OHADA streams (effective 1985) and now one OHADA Uniform Accounting Act embodying 17 member countries (effective 2001) is a milestone towards harmonisation of reporting practice both domestically and internationally. This empirical study examines whether the effort of harmonisation, especially after the 2001 standards has resulted in the successful convergence of firms' accounting practices by analysing public limited liability companies' compliance with the OHADA Uniform Accounting Act and if such compliance has improved over time. The study has been carried out using the 2008 and 2009 annual reports of three public limited companies in the OHADA zone that translate their financial statements into IFRS. The ranks of closeness and compliance index have been used to analyse data. Findings reveal a relatively high level of compliance with the accounting regulation by sampling limited liability companies. The results also give an indication of harmonisation in accounting practice of limited companies within member countries as they were found to be substantially consistent in compliance, especially in countries that have instituted the Statistics and Tax returns (or "DSF") as a reporting medium.
非洲法语国家在协调国内标准和报告与国际财务报告准则(IFRS)方面做出了巨大努力。从两个不同的OCAM流程到两个OHADA流程(1985年生效),再到现在一个包含17个成员国的OHADA统一会计法案(2001年生效),这是国内和国际报告实践协调的一个里程碑。本实证研究通过分析公共有限责任公司对OHADA统一会计法案的遵守情况,以及这种遵守情况是否随着时间的推移而改善,来检验协调的努力,特别是在2001年标准之后,是否导致了公司会计实践的成功趋同。本研究使用了OHADA地区三家将其财务报表转换为国际财务报告准则的上市有限公司的2008年和2009年年度报告。密切度和合规指数的排名已被用于分析数据。调查结果显示,抽样有限责任公司对会计法规的遵守程度相对较高。结果还表明,成员国内部有限公司的会计实践协调一致,因为它们被发现在合规方面基本一致,特别是在将统计和纳税申报表(或“DSF”)作为报告媒介的国家。

Employment Protection Laws and Corporate Cash Holdings 就业保护法和公司现金持有
Pub Date : 2016-05-06 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2773072

This paper investigates the relation between employment protection and corporate liquidity management (i.e., cash holding and cash saving decisions). Theory suggests that employment protection increases firms' labor adjustment costs. We use difference-in-difference estimation method exploiting changes in employment protection laws as a source of variation in labor adjustment costs in 20 countries over the period 1990-2007. We find that, in response to an increase in employment protection, firms increase their cash buffers and propensities to save cash from the funds raised internally and externally. The effect is stronger for firms with relatively small size, high cash flow volatility, and high labor intensity. Overall, our findings suggest that firms' precautionary motives for cash savings increase as labor adjustment costs and therefore operating leverage increases.
本文研究了就业保护与企业流动性管理(即现金持有和现金节约决策)之间的关系。理论认为,就业保护增加了企业的劳动力调整成本。我们使用差分估计方法,利用就业保护法的变化作为20个国家在1990-2007年期间劳动力调整成本变化的来源。我们发现,为了应对就业保护的增加,企业增加了现金缓冲,并倾向于从内部和外部筹集的资金中节省现金。对于规模相对较小、现金流波动较大、劳动强度较高的企业,这种效应更强。总体而言,我们的研究结果表明,随着劳动力调整成本的增加,企业节约现金的预防性动机也会增加,因此经营杠杆也会增加。

The Role of Institutions on the Direction of International Capital Flows 制度对国际资本流动方向的作用
Pub Date : 2016-04-18 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2932973
Rüçhan Kamil Altun
This paper studies the effect of different domestic institutions (property rights, corporate governance, and financial efficiency) on the net direction of different international capital flows (FDI and financial capital) in an empirical setting by taking the theoretical framework designed in Ju and Wei (2010) as a basis. Using a panel dataset for 123 countries covering the period 2006-2014 the results confirm the two-way direction of different international capital flows. The strength of property rights protection is found to have a statistically significant negative lagged effect on net FDI leading to a net outflow of FDI at relatively higher levels of property rights protection. Better corporate governance and financial efficiency is found to have a statistically significant positive effect on net financial capital leading to a net inflow of financial capital at relatively higher levels of financial system efficiency. The relationships holds for different specifications of the model although property rights becomes insignificant once the model has been corrected for potential autocorrelation and heteroskedasticity. Furthermore, there is potential reverse causality between institutions and capital flows that needs to be addressed using a proper time-variant instrument.
本文以Ju and Wei(2010)设计的理论框架为基础,实证研究了不同国内制度(产权、公司治理和金融效率)对不同国际资本流动(FDI和金融资本)净方向的影响。使用涵盖2006-2014年123个国家的面板数据集,结果证实了不同国际资本流动的双向性。研究发现,产权保护力度对净FDI具有统计上显著的负滞后效应,导致在相对较高的产权保护水平下,FDI净流出。研究发现,更好的公司治理和财务效率对净金融资本有统计学上显著的正向影响,导致在相对较高的金融体系效率水平下,金融资本净流入。这种关系适用于模型的不同规格,尽管一旦模型被修正为潜在的自相关和异方差,产权就变得无关紧要。此外,制度和资本流动之间存在潜在的反向因果关系,需要使用适当的时变工具来解决。

Spatial Dependence in Sovereign Wealth Funds' Investments 主权财富基金投资的空间依赖性
Pub Date : 2016-01-05 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2711354
Nicolas Debarsy, J. Gnabo, Malik Kerkour
The aim of this paper is to identify the driving forces of Sovereign wealth funds' investments. For this, we develop an original econometric framework that quantifies the role of spatial dependence in the location of investments, and uses the Inverse Hyperbolic Sine transformation of the dependent variable in a spatial panel model context. This transformation copes with two features of net flows, namely an highly skewed distribution and the presence of zero and negative values. Using a large-scale database, we provide evidence of negative spatial dependence, investments in one country being on average at the expense of its neighbors.
本文的目的是确定主权财富基金投资的驱动力。为此,我们开发了一个原始的计量经济学框架,量化了空间依赖性在投资区位中的作用,并在空间面板模型背景下使用了因变量的反双曲正弦变换。这种转变应对了净流量的两个特征,即高度倾斜的分布以及零和负值的存在。利用一个大规模的数据库,我们提供了负空间依赖的证据,即一个国家的投资平均会损害其邻国的利益。

An Empirical Model Comparison for Valuing Crack Spread Options 裂纹扩展期权估值的经验模型比较
Pub Date : 2015-06-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1557006
Steffen Mahringer, Marcel Prokopczuk
In this paper, we investigate the pricing of crack spread options. Particular emphasis is placed on the question of whether univariate modeling of the crack spread or explicit modeling of the two underlyings is preferable. Therefore, we contrast a bivariate GARCH volatility model for cointegrated underlyings with the alternative of modeling the crack spread directly. Conducting an empirical analysis of crude oil/heating oil and crude oil/gasoline crack spread options traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange, the more simplistic univariate approach is found to be superior with respect to option pricing performance.
本文研究了裂纹价差期权的定价问题。特别强调的问题是,是否单变量建模的裂纹扩展或显式建模的两个基础是可取的。因此,我们将用于协整基础的二元GARCH波动率模型与直接建模裂缝扩展的替代方法进行了对比。通过对在纽约商品交易所交易的原油/取暖油和原油/汽油裂解价差期权的实证分析,发现更简单的单变量方法在期权定价方面表现更好。

Constraints to the Development of A Fully-Fledged Municipal Bond Market in Ghana 加纳发展成熟市政债券市场的制约因素
Pub Date : 2015-05-30 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2647391
N. O. Ansah
Financial markets have become vital tools for sustaining the economies of developing countries to this, many developing countries have embarked on a number of financial sector developments, the government of Ghana as part of the structural adjustment programme launched the Financial Sector Adjustment Programme (FINSAP) to address the deterioration problems in the financial sector. But Ghana still lacks a well-established banking sector and local commercial banks usually find it difficult to provide long-term loans for infrastructure projects. Infrastructure projects often require funding that would exceed the amount that a commercial bank can lend to a single customer under banking regulations. They are not well positioned to finance infrastructure that is intended to generate revenues over 20 to 30 years.Therefore in order to meet the country’s infrastructure financing needs, there is the need to fall on a substantial larger financial option to finance local infrastructure and projects. Ghana’s Local infrastructure projects typically involve a large investment of funds over several years and the expectation of the Priority Action Plan by African Development Bank has necessitated the need of issuing municipal bond to finance it infrastructure projects It was in this light that this paper focused on the constraints and challenges to the development and the implementation of a domestic bond market, and the applicability of such experiences to Ghana. The study specifically analyzed the challenges hindering the development and implementation of municipal bond market in Ghana.The study concludes that Current sources of finance for government of Ghana can’t meet the 10-30 years developmental needs of Ghana so there is the need for municipal bond market to issue municipal bonds. But Government of Ghana hasn’t made much concerted effort by putting a legal or operational framework in place which would enable metropolitan, municipal and district assemblies to issue bonds to finance their infrastructure projects.
金融市场已经成为维持发展中国家经济的重要工具,许多发展中国家已经开始了一些金融部门的发展,加纳政府作为结构调整计划的一部分启动了金融部门调整计划(FINSAP),以解决金融部门恶化的问题。但加纳仍缺乏完善的银行业,当地商业银行通常难以为基础设施项目提供长期贷款。基础设施项目所需的资金往往超过商业银行根据银行业监管规定可以向单个客户提供的贷款。它们在为基础设施融资方面处于不利地位,这些基础设施旨在在20至30年内产生收入。因此,为了满足该国的基础设施融资需求,有必要采取更大规模的金融选择,为当地基础设施和项目提供资金。加纳的地方基础设施项目通常涉及数年的大量资金投资,非洲开发银行对优先行动计划的期望使得发行市政债券为其基础设施项目融资成为必要。鉴于此,本文重点研究了国内债券市场发展和实施的制约因素和挑战,以及这些经验对加纳的适用性。本研究具体分析了阻碍加纳市政债券市场发展和实施的挑战。研究认为,加纳政府目前的资金来源无法满足加纳10-30年的发展需求,因此有必要通过市政债券市场发行市政债券。但是,加纳政府并没有做出多少协调一致的努力,建立一个法律或操作框架,使大都市、市政和地区议会能够发行债券为其基础设施项目融资。
{"title":"Constraints to the Development of A Fully-Fledged Municipal Bond Market in Ghana","authors":"N. O. Ansah","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.2647391","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.2647391","url":null,"abstract":"Financial markets have become vital tools for sustaining the economies of developing countries to this, many developing countries have embarked on a number of financial sector developments, the government of Ghana as part of the structural adjustment programme launched the Financial Sector Adjustment Programme (FINSAP) to address the deterioration problems in the financial sector. But Ghana still lacks a well-established banking sector and local commercial banks usually find it difficult to provide long-term loans for infrastructure projects. Infrastructure projects often require funding that would exceed the amount that a commercial bank can lend to a single customer under banking regulations. They are not well positioned to finance infrastructure that is intended to generate revenues over 20 to 30 years.Therefore in order to meet the country’s infrastructure financing needs, there is the need to fall on a substantial larger financial option to finance local infrastructure and projects. Ghana’s Local infrastructure projects typically involve a large investment of funds over several years and the expectation of the Priority Action Plan by African Development Bank has necessitated the need of issuing municipal bond to finance it infrastructure projects It was in this light that this paper focused on the constraints and challenges to the development and the implementation of a domestic bond market, and the applicability of such experiences to Ghana. The study specifically analyzed the challenges hindering the development and implementation of municipal bond market in Ghana.The study concludes that Current sources of finance for government of Ghana can’t meet the 10-30 years developmental needs of Ghana so there is the need for municipal bond market to issue municipal bonds. But Government of Ghana hasn’t made much concerted effort by putting a legal or operational framework in place which would enable metropolitan, municipal and district assemblies to issue bonds to finance their infrastructure projects.","PeriodicalId":417524,"journal":{"name":"FEN: Other International Corporate Finance (Topic)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126448038","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}
