FINANCING AND HOUSE PRICES

Recent empirical evidence on the effect of below-market financing on house prices has suffered from estimation and interpretation problems.

INTER-INDUSTRY DIFFERENCES IN THE RESPONSE OF TRADE CREDIT TO CHANGES IN MONETARY POLICY

Trade Credit is an important source of finance for firms and with increasing emphasis being placed on monetary policy in recent years in many western countries it is important to examine thk relationship between trade credit and monetary policy. This study uses a large firm-based data series to examine various hypotheses concerning the impact and determination of trade credit flows. The study demonstrates significant differences in the exogenous variables across industries and casts considerable doubt on the validity of earlier aggregated studies of the issue. It is also found that whilst there are dif- ferences between industries, tight monetary policy does not seem to be offset by an extension of net trade credit.

FINANCING INNOVATIONS AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE CHOICES

The last two decades have seen a stream of innovation in financial markets, especially in corporate bonds. Some of these innovations—notably, hybrid debt—have provided firms with more flexibility in designing cash flows on borrowings, allowing them to match cash flows on financing more closely to cash flows on assets. In so doing, the use of such innovative securities has increased corporate debt capacity and hence firm value.
But if such changes have been mostly good news for corporate treasurers, the relentless torrent of innovation has sometimes resulted in firms issuing these new securities for the wrong reasons. Some have done so to take advantage of loopholes in the way ratings agencies and regulatory agencies define debt and equity—and others to exploit perceived pricing anomalies—without considering the effect of such securities on the firm's overall risk profile. In this context, it is worth noting that as corporate bonds have become more complex, investment bankers have made themselves indispensable to the process by providing pricing as well as selling support. This article aims to help managers distinguish when financing with complex securities serves their company's interests, and when it can end up hurting them.     

信用风险对冲技术与我国商业银行的信用风险管理

信用风险过渡集中一直是摆在银行业面前的一大挑战.过去银行主要是运用风险分散的手段来降低资产组合的风险集中度.然而,单一的风险分散手段会导致银行业务小型化、运作成本增加和破坏银行的客户网络等弊端.90年代以后发展起来的信用风险对冲思想使这个难题得到部分解决.本文首先介绍了信用风险对冲技术的几个基本理论问题;在此基础上,重点探讨了信用风险对冲技术在我国商业银行运用的现实性;最后得出结论认为,信用风险对冲技术是一种对宏观环境、金融机构素质、监管机构水平要求很高的风险管理手段,完善以上各方面是该项技术为我国商业银行利用的前提条件.
