Abstract

We investigate the impact of firm-level political risk on loan contracting. We find that firm-level political risk is positively associated with bank loan cost and that this effect is stronger for firms experiencing increased operational uncertainty and higher default risks. Firm-level political risk also leads to more unfavorable non-pricing loan terms. To alleviate endogeneity concerns, we use an instrumental variable approach and placebo tests. We further find that political connections and relationship-based borrowing can attenuate the adverse effect of firm-level political risk on loan contracting.

公司层面的政治风险和银行贷款契约
我们研究了企业层面的政治风险对贷款签约的影响。我们发现,企业层面的政治风险与银行贷款成本呈正相关,而且对于经营不确定性增加和违约风险较高的企业来说,这种影响更大。公司层面的政治风险还会导致更不利的非定价贷款条款。为了缓解内生性问题,我们使用了工具变量方法和安慰剂测试。我们进一步发现,政治关系和基于关系的借贷可以减弱公司层面的政治风险对贷款合同的不利影响。
