Abstract

Using global data on syndicated loans, we show that any negative effect of stronger creditor rights on loan spreads, as identified in the prior literature (Qian and Strahan, 2007; Bae and Goyal, 2009), disappears once we include a single country characteristic: country size. This finding is robust to several identification methods, both global samples and within-country changes in creditor rights, different panel spans, and hundreds of control variables. We identify that key origins of the effect of country size on loan pricing are ethnic fractionalization and within-country heterogeneity in economic preferences, which create country risk.

全球贷款定价的决定因素：债权人权利还是国家规模？

利用银团贷款的全球数据，我们表明，如先前文献所述，更强的债权对贷款利差的任何负面影响(Qian和Strahan, 2007；Bae和Goyal， 2009)，一旦我们包括一个单一的国家特征：国家规模就消失了。这一发现适用于几种识别方法，包括全球样本和国内债权变化、不同面板跨度和数百个控制变量。我们发现，国家规模对贷款定价影响的主要来源是民族分块化和国家内部经济偏好的异质性，这两方面都会产生国家风险。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Financial Stability provides an international forum for rigorous theoretical and empirical macro and micro economic and financial analysis of the causes, management, resolution and preventions of financial crises, including banking, securities market, payments and currency crises. The primary focus is on applied research that would be useful in affecting public policy with respect to financial stability. Thus, the Journal seeks to promote interaction among researchers, policy-makers and practitioners to identify potential risks to financial stability and develop means for preventing, mitigating or managing these risks both within and across countries.
