Foreign Currency Borrowing by Small Firms [PDF]

open access: yes
We examine the firm- and country-level determinants of the currency denomination of small business loans. We first model the choice of loan currency in a framework which features a trade-off between lower cost of debt and the risk of firm-level distress ...
