Pessimism, optimism and credit rationing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In their celebrated contribution on credit rationing, Stiglitz and Weiss (1981) showed that the expected return to the borrower on a loan is increasing in the risk of the project it funds. In this paper, I show that their results do not necessarily carry over to the case where the agents' preferences can be described by rank-dependent expected utility (

Trade Credit and Credit Rationing

Review of Financial Studies, 1997
Asymmetric information between banks and firms can preclude financing of valuable projects. Trade credit alleviates this problem by incorporating in the lending relation the private information held by suppliers about their customers.

Credit Rationing and Rational Behavior

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, 1994
This paper shows that optimal consumption is weakly increasing in the borrowing ceiling, while savings and the welfare losses caused by borrowing constraints are weakly decreasing.

ABSTRACTWe develop a model of lender behavior in the presence of default risk and moral hazard that determines default premiums and identifies the conditions under which borrowers are rationed. A hypothesis regarding a cognitive bias in the formation of expectations provides a dynamic component to our analysis and allows us to explain how an economy ...

Credit Rationing and Capital Accumulation

Economica, 1991
This paper develops a dynamic partial equilibrium analysis of how financial policy affects capital accumulation when bank loans are rationed and subsidized. The underlying specification of intertemporal behavior is critical: loan policy often has qualitatively different effects on capital accumulation in overlapping-generations and infinite-horizon ...

Credit Rationing: Issues and Questions

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, 1978
THE QUESTION OF CREDIT RATIONING has been the subject of a number of theoretical discussions during the past twenty-five years.
