Volatility, Financial Constraints, and trade [PDF]
We construct a dynamic monopolistic competition model with heterogeneous firms to study the links between firms’ earnings volatility, the degree of financial constraints that they face, their survival probabilities, and their export market participation ...

Oligopolistic equilibrium and financial constraints [PDF]
In this paper we present a model of oligopoly and financial constraints. We study allocations which are bankruptcy-free (BF) in the sense that no firm can drive another firm to bankruptcy without becoming bankrupt.

Regulation under Financial Constraints [PDF]
This article studies the problem of regulating a monopolist with unknown marginal cost. The originality of the paper is to consider that the regulator faces a cash-in-advance constraint.

Financial Constraints and Firm Export Behavior [PDF]
The paper analyzes the link between financial constraints and firm export behavior. Our main finding is that firms enjoying better financial health are more likely to become exporters.

Identifying Financial Constraints [PDF]
We propose a new methodology to recover firm-time varying financial constraints from firms' production behavior. We model financial constraints as the profitability that firms forgo when budget constraints on production inputs bind, impeding them from using the optimal level of inputs and technology.

Exporting, Capital Investment and Financial Constraints [PDF]
Many firms cite financial constraints as some of the most important impediments to their investment and growth. Using a unique data set from the Czech Republic this paper investigates the importance of financing constraints in the context of exporters ...

Do Measures of Financial Constraints Measure Financial Constraints? [PDF]
Financial constraints are fundamental to empirical research in finance and economics. We propose two tests to evaluate how well measures of financial constraints actually capture constraints. We find that firms typically classified as constrained do not in fact behave as if they were constrained: they have no trouble raising debt when their demand for ...

Uncovering Financial Constraints
AbstractWe use a random forest model to classify firms’ financial constraints using only financial variables. Our methodology expands the range of classified firms compared to text-based measures while maintaining similar levels of informativeness. We construct two versions of our constraint measures, one using many firm characteristics and the other ...

Financial Constraints and Company Investment [PDF]
as well as a large body of academic research. The answer tothis question has a number of important implications. Profits are highly cyclical,so if investment depends directly on the availability of profits then investmentspending will be more sensitive to fluctuations in economic activity than wouldotherwise be the case.

Financial constraints and firm dynamics [PDF]
This study analyzes the effect of financial constraints (FCs) on firm dynamics. We measure FCs with an official credit rating, which captures availability and cost of external resources. We find that FCs undermine average firm growth, induce anti-correlation in growth patterns and reduce the dependence of growth volatility on size.
