房贷政策、融资结构与财务绩效--基于129家房地产上市公司的证据

目前我国房地产上市公司资产负债率的均值介于[64%~67%]之间,如此高的资产负债率对公司财务绩效有很大的影响。从债务融资结构角度出发,结合当前我国房地产上市公司的实际,实证分析的结果为：我国房地产上市公司最优的短期借款率介于[17.8%~24.9%]之间,长期借款率与财务绩效并不存在显著的线性、二次、三次方关系,最优的房屋预售款率应介于[30.7%~41.9%]之间,商业信用率应控制在[0~42.8%]之间,同时,财务绩效与企业债券率呈正相关。因此,优化房地产上市公司债务融资结构应该合理协调债务融资结构中各个指标的比率,充分利用房贷政策及时调整融资手段、积极发行中期票据,适当运用税务筹划手段,建立适应政府宏观调控和市场变化的内部融资机制。     

"三二分段"中高职衔接招生考试制度探讨与研究

"三二分段"中高职衔接招生考试制度已成为高职院校主要的招生考试制度之一,该考试制度可以协调中职与高职教育的发展,是构建现代职业教育体系的重要途径. 但是,在其实践的过程中仍然存在考试制度趋同于普通高考等较多的问题. 研究以天津市为例,就这些问题进行了深入的探讨和分析,提出了一些具有可行性的建议.     

房地产上市公司融资模式对投资行为的影响

借鉴 Aivazianetal 简化投资模型建立了融资模式对投资行为影响的理论模型,基于1998~2012年的面板数据,实证研究不同产权属性和不同规模房地产上市公司融资模式对投资行为的影响。研究发现：房地产上市公司的债务融资会促使投资增长,而股权融资会减少投资,内源性融资与投资行为的相关性并不显著;国有房地产上市公司的投资行为更加积极;大规模房地产上市公司受外部融资约束更强。为此,应完善房地产上市公司治理结构、拓宽融资渠道。     

互联网金融模式下的余额理财用户投资行为分析

以余额宝为首的余额理财平台依托大数据技术吸引大量闲散资金,迅速占领了互联网金融理财市场。在技术接受与使用模型(UTAUT)的基础上,增加经济价值和感知风险两个控制变量,构建余额理财用户投资行为的影响因素模型,运用结构方程模型分析影响用户使用余额理财平台的主要因素并对模型进行修正。研究结果表明：用户的绩效期望、社会影响以及经济价值显著影响用户的投资行为意图,用户的努力期望通过绩效期望间接影响用户的投资行为意图,而投资行为意图决定用户的投资行为。     

The external wealth of nations mark II: Revised and extended estimates of foreign assets and liabilities, 1970-2004

We construct estimates of external assets and liabilities for 145 countries for 1970-2004. We describe our estimation methods and key features of the data at the country and global level. We focus on trends in net and gross external positions, and the composition of international portfolios. We document the increasing importance of equity financing and the improvement in the external position for emerging markets, and the differing pace of financial integration between advanced and developing economies. We also show the existence of a global discrepancy between estimated foreign assets and liabilities, and identify the asset categories accounting for this discrepancy.     

The Economics of State Subsidies in Early Stage Financing

We analyze the effect of state subsidies on early stage investments. In a two‐period investment model with incomplete stage financing contracts, we describe optimal and second‐best investment levels. Optimality depends on external effects: given that private early stage financing generates positive external effects, the subsidies might be designed to use scarce state money most efficiently to mobilize private investment capital. However, a subsidy might also contribute to greater efficiency of the contractual relationship itself without regard to external effects. Refinancing subsidies can be optimal under both perspectives and are always optimal under last of the two approaches. The comparison of the main types of subsidies, i.e. refinancing subsidies, guarantees and direct investments, speaks against the use of guarantees. Finally, we show that our results do also hold if some investors (e.g. venture capitalists) have a superior screening capability.     

How should we divide the pie? Equity distribution and its impact on entrepreneurial teams

Drawing on a multiple case study approach and data on eight entrepreneurial teams observed over six months this article develops a dynamic model of the consequences of equity distribution among team members. Perceived justice of equity distribution emerged as a key variable influencing entrepreneurial team interactions and important entrepreneurial outcomes. High perceived justice triggered positive team interaction spirals, whereas low perceived justice triggered negative interaction spirals. Teams exposed to external threats drifted from a positive spiral to a negative spiral despite high perceived justice. We discuss the implications of our study for research on entrepreneurial imprints, justice, and exit.     

Using stated response choice data to enrich revealed preference discrete choice models

There is growing interest in exploring the view that both revealed preference (RP) and stated preference (SP) data have useful information and that their integration will enrich the overall explanatory power of RP choice models. These two types of data have been independently used in the estimation of a wide variety of discrete choice applications in marketing. In order to combine the two data sources, each with independent choice outcomes, allowance must be made for their different scaling properties. The approach uses a full information maximum likelihood estimation procedure of the hierarchical logit form to obtain suitable scaling parameters to make one or more data sets comparable. We illustrate the advantages of the dual data strategy by comparing the results with those obtained from models estimated independently with RP and SP data. Data collected as part of a study of high speed rail is used to estimate a set of illustrative mode choice models.     

Financial Information Credibility,Legal Environment,and SMEs’ Access to Finance

Abstract

There remains academic debate on the association between credible financial information and small firms’ access to diversified sources of finance. This study investigates the role of credible financial information and its interaction with a country’s legal and regulatory environment on the access of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to diversified sources of finance in 129 developing countries. The findings indicate positive impacts of financial information quality and a country’s legal and regulatory environment on small firms’ access to diversified sources of finance. SMEs operating in a weak legal and regulatory environment benefit more from providing credible financial information. The findings are robust after controlling for the endogeneity of firms audit decision using a two-stage instrumental variable method. Our evidence suggests that firms’ credible signaling of the quality of their financial information helps reduce the adverse selection problem for finance suppliers, increasing small firms’ access to diversified sources of finance.     

跨国公司股权进入模式的博弈分析

本文从股权和控制权分离的视角对跨国公司股权进入模式进行了动态的博弈分析。跨国公司的股权进入模式,尤其是对控制权的配置,是在满足东道国企业和跨国公司双方激励相容和参与约束的条件下,由双方共同决定的一种相机性配置机制,目的在于尽可能减少当地企业实施机会主义行为的风险,同时又能适时地给予当地合作者以足够的激励,以尽可能地利用当地资源。
