Using a sample of United Kingdom (UK) non-financial firms from 2009 to 2021, this paper examines the operating performance effect of aggressive and moderate use of trade payables and bank credit. The results demonstrate a hierarchical effect of the use of short-term credit on firms operating performance. In particular, the results show that aggressive use of bank credit achieves higher operating performance, followed by moderate use of trade payables and bank credit and then aggressive use of trade payables. We further document that operating performance of firms dealing in differentiated products, lower firm size, firms with higher market power and financially stable firms’ increases with aggressive and moderate use of trade payables and bank credit. Overall, the results indicate that firm operating performance is an increasing function of bank credit use and demonstrate the importance of short-term credit policies on firms’ operating performance. The results are robust after using a novel approach in addressing the issue of endogeneity.

本文以 2009 年至 2021 年英国非金融企业为样本,研究了积极和适度使用应付账款和银行信贷对企业经营业绩的影响。研究结果表明,短期信贷的使用对企业经营业绩的影响是分层次的。具体而言,结果表明,积极使用银行信贷可实现更高的经营绩效,其次是适度使用应付账款和银行信贷,然后是积极使用应付账款。我们还发现,经营差异化产品的企业、企业规模较小的企业、市场支配力较强的企业和财务稳定的企业的经营绩效会随着积极和适度使用应付账款和银行信贷而提高。总体而言,研究结果表明,企业经营业绩是银行信贷使用的递增函数,并证明了短期信贷政策对企业经营业绩的重要性。在使用新方法解决内生性问题后,结果是稳健的。

We examine the impact of activist hedge fund campaigns on corporate Intangible Capital (IC) investments, a key determinant of corporate long-term growth and performance. We document that post-activist campaigns, targeted firms reduce IC investments by more than 10% compared to carefully matched non-target firms. In cross-sectional analyses, we observe the largest effects in less competitive industries, for older target firms and for firms with high financial constraints suggesting that IC cuts are more common in low-discipline and low-barriers-to-invest contexts. Hedge funds are cutting down IC investments when they engage both in relatively short and longer interventions but especially so when they have less industry investment experience. Further, we do not find evidence of post-intervention increased investment efficiency in targeted firms, casting some doubt on the longer-term value-added of activist IC slashing campaigns. Finally, in an attempt to identify where the saved IC resources post intervention flow to, we observe that targeted firms increase corporate payouts and prefer share repurchase programs above cash dividends.

我们研究了激进对冲基金活动对企业无形资本(IC)投资的影响,这是决定企业长期增长和业绩的关键因素。根据我们的记录,与经过仔细匹配的非目标公司相比,目标公司在激进主义运动后会减少 10% 以上的无形资本投资。在横截面分析中,我们观察到竞争性较弱的行业、年龄较大的目标企业和财务约束较高的企业受到的影响最大,这表明在低纪律和低投资壁垒的情况下,削减集成电路投资更为常见。对冲基金在进行相对较短或较长时间的干预时,都会削减集成电路投资,尤其是在行业投资经验较少的情况下。此外,我们没有发现干预后目标公司投资效率提高的证据,这让我们对激进投资人削减集成电路投资活动的长期增值产生了一些怀疑。最后,为了确定干预后节省下来的集成电路资源流向何处,我们观察到目标公司增加了公司派息,并且更倾向于股票回购计划而非现金分红。

Macroeconomic uncertainty and earnings management: evidence from commodity firms 宏观经济不确定性与收益管理:来自商品公司的证据
IF 1.7 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2024-02-08 DOI: 10.1007/s11156-024-01246-8

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between macroeconomic uncertainty and earnings management, using quarterly data of US commodity firms from the period 1990–2019. The findings show that oil and iron firms use both accruals and real activities to decrease earnings in quarters with high basis risk. Earnings management is economically significant. Further investigation provides fine-grained evidence that specific types of uncertainty (economic policy, climate policy, geopolitical) have varying effects on earnings management. The study also provides evidence that earnings management is aimed at giving investors useful information about the firms’ performance during uncertain times. The study contributes to previous research on uncertainty and earnings management. It also informs market participants about the financial reporting quality of commodity firms, and has practical implications for financial reporting regulation in extracting industries.

摘要 本研究利用 1990-2019 年期间美国大宗商品公司的季度数据,研究了宏观经济不确定性与收益管理之间的关系。研究结果表明,在基础风险较高的季度,石油和钢铁企业会利用应计项目和实际活动来减少收益。收益管理具有经济意义。进一步的调查提供了精细的证据,表明特定类型的不确定性(经济政策、气候政策、地缘政治)对收益管理有不同的影响。研究还提供证据表明,收益管理的目的是在不确定时期为投资者提供有关公司业绩的有用信息。本研究为以往有关不确定性和收益管理的研究做出了贡献。它还向市场参与者介绍了商品公司的财务报告质量,并对采掘业的财务报告监管具有实际意义。

Breaking the Big Four brand’s halo effect precisely: evidence from the association between RMM coverage ratios and integrated audit effectiveness 打破 "四大 "品牌的光环效应:RMM覆盖率与综合审计有效性之间的关联证据
IF 1.7 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2024-02-04 DOI: 10.1007/s11156-023-01238-0

Abstract

This research examines what proportion of Big Four auditors underperform in integrated audit settings and why. Incorporating the inverse relation between detection risk and assessed risk of material misstatement (RMM) per the classic audit risk model, we create an RMM coverage ratio to measure how many times the total audit effort expended covers pre-existing RMM—the higher the ratio, the larger the margin for errors. We then partition the RMM coverage ratios in each industry into Deciles (0–9). Empirical analyses corroborate that, given the risk-based audit approach strictly executed, only the Big Four auditors of higher Deciles (2–9) increase the likelihood of integrated audit effectiveness. This evidence indicates that due to a small margin for errors (e.g., RMM coverage ratios ≤ 2.31), 20% of Big Four auditors are less likely to adequately assess or address risks to deliver an engagement, breaking the Big Four brand’s halo effect precisely.

摘要 本研究探讨了四大审计师在综合审计中表现不佳的比例及其原因。根据经典审计风险模型中检测风险与评估的重大错报风险(RMM)之间的反比关系,我们创建了一个 RMM 覆盖率,以衡量所花费的总审计努力有多少倍能够覆盖预先存在的 RMM--该比率越高,出错的余地就越大。然后,我们将每个行业的 RMM 覆盖率划分为十等分(0-9)。实证分析证实,在严格执行风险导向审计方法的情况下,只有四大审计师中较高十等分(2-9)的审计师才会提高综合审计效果的可能性。这一证据表明,由于误差幅度较小(如 RMM 覆盖率≤ 2.31),20% 的四大审计师不太可能充分评估或应对风险以完成业务约定,这恰恰打破了四大品牌的光环效应。

Syndicated loans: mapping the trends, sources and intellectual evolution 银团贷款:趋势、来源和知识演变图谱
IF 1.7 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2024-02-01 DOI: 10.1007/s11156-024-01243-x

Abstract

This study conducts a citation-based comprehensive systematic literature review (SLR) of the syndicated loan market by identifying and recognizing the sources of knowledge-producing leading articles, journals and authors in this area. In total, we present a citation analysis of 374 articles from the Scopus database using a comprehensive list of keyword searches. We find that the importance of research using syndicated loan data has increased after the global financial crisis (GFC). It is perhaps due to the reason that the GFC was mainly a credit crisis that sparked the interest of research in this area. We identify the Journal of Financial Economics as the leading journal in terms of citation and the Journal of Banking and Finance in terms of publication count. Victoria Ivashina comes out as the leading author in terms of the citation count and Anthony Saunders in terms of publication count. We also perform a content analysis of the top 100 most cited papers and identify data characteristics, major themes, estimation techniques and empirical approaches. Our SLR provides a macro picture of research on syndicated loan studies. Finally, we provide an overview of the direction for future research.

摘要 本研究以引文为基础,对银团贷款市场进行了全面系统的文献综述(SLR),识别并确认了该领域产生知识的主要文章、期刊和作者的来源。我们利用综合关键词搜索列表,对 Scopus 数据库中的 374 篇文章进行了引文分析。我们发现,在全球金融危机(GFC)之后,使用银团贷款数据进行研究的重要性有所增加。这或许是因为全球金融危机主要是一场信贷危机,激发了人们对这一领域的研究兴趣。我们发现,《金融经济学期刊》在引用方面处于领先地位,而《银行与金融期刊》在发表数量方面处于领先地位。维多利亚-伊瓦希纳(Victoria Ivashina)是引用次数最多的作者,安东尼-桑德斯(Anthony Saunders)是发表次数最多的作者。我们还对引用次数最多的前 100 篇论文进行了内容分析,并确定了数据特征、主要主题、估算技术和实证方法。我们的 SLR 提供了银团贷款研究的宏观图景。最后,我们概述了未来的研究方向。

You scratch my back and i scratch yours: evidence from relationship-based bidding in IPO auctions 你抓我的后背,我抓你的后背:IPO 拍卖中基于关系的竞价证据

Using a dataset of institutional bids for IPOs, we study how relationships with lead underwriters impact institutional investors’ bidding strategy in the auctioned IPOs. Our paper finds that strong business ties lead to higher bid prices. The effect is more pronounced among IPO firms that receive less market attention, and is attenuated for IPOs certified by reputable intermediaries. We propose that rent-seeking incentives may be the potential mechanism for this relationship-based bidding. Our study highlights that the business connection between underwriters and institutional investors has effect on the IPO pricing.

我们利用首次公开募股的机构投标数据集,研究了与主承销商的关系如何影响机构投资者在首次公开募股拍卖中的投标策略。我们的论文发现,紧密的业务联系会导致更高的投标价格。这种影响在市场关注度较低的 IPO 公司中更为明显,而在由声誉良好的中介机构认证的 IPO 公司中则有所减弱。我们认为,寻租动机可能是这种基于关系的投标的潜在机制。我们的研究强调,承销商与机构投资者之间的业务联系对 IPO 定价有影响。

The impact of political uncertainty on the cost of capital 政治不确定性对资本成本的影响
IF 1.7 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2024-01-20 DOI: 10.1007/s11156-023-01236-2

Abstract

We investigate the impact of political uncertainty on the relationship between foreign equity portfolio flow and the cost of capital. Using panel data from 40 countries from 2001 to 2016, our results show that the year before a national election is associated with a higher cost of capital. Further analyses show that the relationship between international equity portfolio flow and the cost of capital is sensitive to political uncertainty. In line with the institutional quality channel, we find that checks and balances interact with political uncertainty to reduce the negative effects of political uncertainty on the cost of capital. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that foreign investors strategically reduce their equity portfolio investment to the recipient country before a national election which reduces risk-sharing between domestic and foreign investors.

摘要 我们研究了政治不确定性对外国股票投资组合流动与资本成本之间关系的影响。利用 2001 年至 2016 年 40 个国家的面板数据,我们的研究结果表明,全国大选前一年的资本成本较高。进一步的分析表明,国际股票投资组合流动与资本成本之间的关系对政治不确定性很敏感。与制度质量渠道一致,我们发现制衡机制与政治不确定性相互作用,降低了政治不确定性对资本成本的负面影响。结果与以下假设相符,即外国投资者在国家大选前会战略性地减少对受援国的股票投资组合投资,从而减少国内外投资者之间的风险分担。

We provide new evidence on the effects of social media in the context of a financial scandal using a sample of banks that were accused of manipulating the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). We find that increased bank Twitter activity when the scandal surfaced has a positive moderating effect on equity returns. However, the dissemination of content operated by social media users has a negative counterbalancing effect, thus amplifying the impact of the scandal. In particular, tweets that are unrelated to the scandal and characterized by positive sentiment contribute to exacerbating the reputational damage suffered by banks. We contribute to the emerging literature on the role of social media in capital markets.

我们以被指控操纵伦敦银行同业拆借利率(LIBOR)的银行为样本,提供了金融丑闻背景下社交媒体影响的新证据。我们发现,当丑闻浮出水面时,银行 Twitter 活动的增加对股票回报率有积极的调节作用。然而,社交媒体用户操作的内容传播具有负面的平衡效应,从而放大了丑闻的影响。特别是,与丑闻无关且具有积极情绪特征的推文会加剧银行遭受的声誉损失。我们为有关社交媒体在资本市场中的作用的新兴文献做出了贡献。

Military directors and stock price informativeness: What's all the fuss about? 军方董事和股价信息性:这有什么大惊小怪的?

Exploiting a unique hand-built dataset, belonging to non-financial firms, operating in an emerging economy, this study, first of its kind, reports that stock prices of firms with military-experienced board of directors reflect more firm specific information after controlling for board attributes, agent heterogeneity and firm level variation. The results robust to alternative specifications of informativeness and military director proxy support the notion that military-trained directors may enhance transparency in public listed companies and encourage the incorporation of more firm-specific information into stock prices. Further analysis suggests that military directors may enfeeble CEO–board nexus and settle the directional variations at the corporate board level: military directors bring discipline in the board room that translates into rigorous CEO monitoring and improved corporate governance quality.

本研究利用手工建立的独特数据集(属于在新兴经济体运营的非金融企业),首次报告了在控制了董事会属性、代理人异质性和企业水平差异之后,具有军事经验的董事会的企业股票价格反映了更多的企业特定信息。对信息量和军事董事代理的其他规格进行稳健分析的结果支持这样一种观点,即受过军事训练的董事可能会提高上市公司的透明度,并鼓励将更多公司特定信息纳入股票价格。进一步的分析表明,军方董事可能会削弱首席执行官与董事会之间的联系,并解决公司董事会层面的方向性变化:军方董事给董事会带来纪律,从而转化为对首席执行官的严格监督,并提高公司治理质量。

Abstract

We contribute to redefining the criteria based on Almost Stochastic Dominance for better portfolio comparison in four ways. First, we refine the first order of Marginal Conditional Stochastic Dominance (Yitzhaki and Olkin in Concentration indices and concentration curves, Vol 19, Lecture notes-monograph series: stochastic orders and decision under risk, 1991; Shalit and Yitzhaki in Manag Sci 40(5):670–684, 1994), which is designed for pairwise asset comparison. Second, we redefine Almost Marginal Conditional Stochastic Dominance (AMCSD) by Denuit et al. (J Bank Finance 41:57–66, 2014) and Chen et al. (Q Rev Econ Finance 85 (C):260–269, 2022), which considers multiple asset changes in a portfolio, especially in the case of second-order stochastic dominance. Our effort secures the hierarchy property (Guo et al. in Econ Lett 121:252–256, 2013) which is absent in previous studies. Third, we extend the analysis of multiple assets and apply our AMCSD definition and Marginal Conditional Stochastic Dominance. Our AMCSD treatment is confirmed to be more appropriate than those in previous study. Finally, for the sake of portfolio risk management, we compose three hypothetical portfolios with option-based indices for empirical analysis. The empirical outcomes support our efforts.

摘要 我们从四个方面重新定义了基于几乎随机优势的标准,以便更好地进行投资组合比较。首先,我们完善了边际条件随机优势的第一阶(Yitzhaki 和 Olkin 在《集中指数和集中曲线》中,第 19 卷,讲义-专著系列:风险下的随机秩序和决策,1991 年;Shalit 和 Yitzhaki 在 Manag Sci 40(5):670-684, 1994 年),它是为成对资产比较而设计的。其次,我们重新定义了 Denuit 等人(J Bank Finance 41:57-66, 2014)和 Chen 等人(Q Rev Econ Finance 85 (C):260-269, 2022)提出的几乎边际条件随机支配(AMCSD),它考虑了投资组合中的多种资产变化,尤其是在二阶随机支配的情况下。我们的努力确保了层次属性(Guo et al. in Econ Lett 121:252-256,2013),而这在之前的研究中是没有的。第三,我们扩展了对多种资产的分析,并应用了我们的 AMCSD 定义和边际条件随机支配。与之前的研究相比,我们的 AMCSD 处理方法更合适。最后,为了进行投资组合风险管理,我们用基于期权的指数组成了三个假设投资组合进行实证分析。实证结果支持了我们的努力。
