中小企业商业信用融资区域差异研究

商业信用融资的发展为解决我国中小企业融资问题提供了新的方向。为了更好地利用商业信用融资方式,文章运用面板数据方法对关中—天水经济区和珠江三角洲经济区的中小企业商业信用融资使用情况做了比较分析,发现中小企业商业信用融资使用水平具有区域差异性,并进一步分析了造成差异的原因及其影响程度。文章认为中小企业商业信用融资受到环境、组织和个人三个层面因素的影响,在不同的地区,这些影响因素具有不同的表现。     

Firm credit in the euro area: a tale of three crises

Using survey data from 2009 to 2011, we analyse the effects of the recent euro area economic, financial and private debt crisis on the supply of and demand for bank finance for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). At the country level, we identify three distinct aspects of the recent crisis in the euro area affecting firm credit through different channels. Controlling for country fixed effects, the impact of a weak real economy on firm credit operates both by reducing firms’ demand for bank financing and by lenders increasing loan rejections and tightening terms and conditions on credit allocated. On the other hand, financial conditions have no significant effect on demand, but they do affect credit supply as we find that financial tensions worsen the chances of obtaining credit and its terms and conditions. We interpret this as evidence of a bank balance sheet channel negatively impacting credit provision. We find that private sector indebtedness has important effects on SMEs’ credit access and its terms and conditions.     

科技金融与中小高新技术企业发展的实证分析

科技和金融是现代经济发展的重要构成要素。分别选取政策性科技金融和金融机构科技贷款表示科技金融指标,构建生产函数为基础检验模型,并以1999--2011年大连相关数据对二者的关系检验。结果表明,中小高新技术企业的发展约13％可以归因于政策性科技金融,约56％归于高层次科技人员的投入,但是金融机构科技贷款的波动不利于中小高新技术企业的发展。在因果关系上,只存在金融机构科技贷款与中小型高科技企业发展的单方向Granger因果关系。     

债务融资、商业信贷与中小企业投资——来自非上市制造业企业的证据

文章利用中国4 522家非上市中小企业的财务数据,运用面板分析方法考察了内部资金和外部资金对中小企业投资的影响,并检验了各种融资因素对中小企业投资的贡献度。通过对不同所有制中小企业投资受融资因素影响的比较分析,文章认为中小企业投资受债务资金约束,而且所有制因素在一定程度上制约了中小企业的融资,不过商业信贷可以在一定程度上替代银行贷款而缓解中小企业的融资难问题。     

货币政策、商业信用与科技创新投资

实证检验了商业信用对企业科技创新投资的影响与作用机制，以及在不同货币政策期的异同。研究发现：总体上，商业信用能够缓解创新融资约束，促进企业科技创新投资；在货币紧缩期，商业信用对创新融资约束有显著缓解作用，对创新投资的促进作用较之货币宽松期更为明显。进一步研究表明，国有企业能利用商业信用促进创新投资，且在货币紧缩期通过对商业信用的利用，缓解创新融资约束、促进创新投资；该现象在民营企业中不存在，可能与国有企业对商业信用有更强的获取及控制能力有关。研究成果丰富了商业信用的经济后果内涵，为解决企业创新融资问题提供了新思路。     

Contagion effects of sovereign credit rating revisions on the real economy: is it trade or finance?

We analyse the contagion effects of sovereign credit rating revisions on the real economy, with particular emphasis on the intensity of trade and finance channels. Our findings show that event countries that experienced rating revisions cause substantial contagion effects on the real output growth rates of nonevent countries. Nonevent countries with a high export ratio, high external debt levels, or those that are more dependent on common bank credit relative to other nonevent countries are more likely to be infected by event countries’ adverse credit shocks. The results remain after accounting for alternative real economy indicators, financial liberalization, financial crises, and economic development status.     

Jointly issued notes: a financial instrument to improve SME credit worthiness in China

A financial instrument to improve the credit worthiness of small and medium enterprises (SMEs), i.e. Jointly Issued Notes (JINs), improves the average credit rating of SMEs by eight notches, from BBB to AA+, thus reducing borrowing cost by 298 basis points. This research note describes the various kinds of JINs, and then analyzes their effect on the credit worthiness of SMEs. We conclude that the JINs successfully facilitate access to credit at lower rates in China.     

银行业结构影响中小企业信贷能力? ——基于分层线性模型实证

中小企业融资问题引起了我国普遍关注。基于wind数据库,利用分层线性模型考察了企业规模与银行业结构对中小企业信贷能力的影响,并引入了商业信用环境变量,研究不同商业信用环境下,该影响是否会发生变化。研究发现,企业规模越大,银行业结构越分散,企业信贷能力越强,但该影响程度随着商业信用环境的提高而减弱。本研究对于如何提高中小企业信贷能力具有重要参考意义。     

The role of financial systems for cross-country differences in the link between income and consumption inequality

This article discusses why consumption inequality stays low despite high income inequality in the U.S; but income inequality is closely followed by consumption inequality in China. We show that different financial systems can play a critical role in shaping the cross-country different links between income and consumption inequality. This phenomenon is consistent with the cross-country different relationships between income inequality and saving rates. Consumer credit expansion in the U.S. makes inequality much less serious for consumption than for income, and this result holds to an even larger extent if more domestic credit can be financed by foreign savings. But this is not the case in China, whose financial system focuses only on investment and trade while neglecting liquidity constraints on consumption. Our assertions accord well with evidence found from the U.S., China, and other related economies.     

信用风险、出口信用保险和出口贸易关系的研究

文章基于厂商理论对信用风险、出口信用保险与最优出口量之间的关系进行理论分析,论证了信用风险对出口贸易的负面效应,以及政府支持的出口信用保险对外贸出口的推动效应;并通过对中国的出口规模和进口国国家信用之间的关系进行实证检验,验证了信用风险的负面贸易效应,阐明了对于信用评级下调的发达市场以及绝对信用评级较低、人均收入较低的新兴市场,中国不仅需要而且必须加强发挥出口信用保险的功能。
