This paper tests the validity of pecking order theory by Myers(1977) and Myers and Majluf(1984) on Korean manufacturing firms listed in the KRX for the years of 1994 to 2003. We also want to see if there is any difference in financing behavior between chaebol affiliated firms and non-chaebol affiliated firms. We develop testable hypotheses from the idea that established relationship between bank and firm mitigates the problem of information asymmetry (Kang and Lim, 2001), and thus makes it easier for firms to raise funds through banks. The test result of the first stage shows that firms prefer cash reserves to debt financing, and prefer debt to equity. Chaebol affiliated firms are found to behave as if they already exploit internal capital markets. The second stage of the test carried out by dividing debt capital into bank loans and corporate bonds also shows a consistent pattern of financing behavior. Firms are testified to prefer cash to bank loans, bank loans to corporate bonds, and corporate bonds to equity. In this case chaebol affiliation seems to make firms behave as if they already establish internal capital markets. Further analysis shows that some, though not in every case, difference of ordering around the occasion of Korean financial crisis exists. It may be from the change of attitude of Korean firms to risk, or from weakened influence of internal capital market along with strengthened market power in the post-crisis period.

본 연구에서는 자본구조 결정시 레버리지비율과 부채만기가 동시적으로 고려될 것이라는 가정하에 우리나라 기업에 대하여 이들의 결정요인을 연립방정식 체계하에서 2단계최소자승법에 의해 분석하였다. 이러한 분석 결과, 우리나라 기업에서 레버리지비율과 부채만기는 서로 양(+)의 상관관계에 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 레버리지가 높은 기업은 채무불이행위험에 직면할 가능성이 높으므로 이를 회피하기 위해 장기부채를 선호할 것이라는 Leland와 Toft(1996)의 주장과 일관성이 있다. 그러나 또 한편 이것은 주로 단기부채 위주로 자금이 공급되고 기업의 신용위험의 양극화 현상이 심한 우리나라 현실에서 대외적 신인도가 높고 신용위험이 낮은 기업일수록 부채사용이 많고 또 동시에 안정적인 장기차입이 용이한 현상을 반영한 것으로도 풀이된다. 그리고 부채만기의 결정요인으로는 앞의 선행 연구에서와 마찬가지로 대리인비용가설과 자산만기대응가설, 신호전달 및 유동성위험가설 등이 모두 대체적으로 지지되었으며, 레버리지 면에서는 주로 기업규모가 크고 채무불이행위험이 낮을수록 부채사용이 많은 것으로 분석되었다. 그러나 은행차입금 수준과 재벌의 소속 여부에 따라 표본을 구분해 본 결과, 재벌소속 기업보다는 비재벌기업에서 정보비대칭과 자금조달의 제약이 높을 것이라는 가설은 지지되었으나, OLS에 의해 동일한 분석을 시행한 기존의 연구와는 달리 은행차입이 낮은 기업에서 정보비대칭이나 대리인문제가 더 심각할 것이라는 가설을 지지하는 증거는 미약하였다.

In this study, an empirical analysis of 55 ship finance cases executed by a specific ship finance bank from 2009 to 2016 during the recession period was conducted. The purpose of this study was to find the factors affecting changes in the debt performance of Korean shipping companies. The main factors were the loan nature (investment purpose, loan-to-value (LTV), syndicated loans, loan terms, put-option, balloon, and spread), financial nature (total assets turnover, net profit-to-sales ratio, debt ratio, quick ratio, total borrowing, bonds payable to total assets, interest expenses-to-sales ratio, debt service coverage ratio (DSCR), and total assets), and the company nature (company age, chief executive officer's (CEO's) shares, and listing status). In this study, the factors affecting the debt repayment capability of domestic shipping companies (loan nature, financial nature, and company nature) were verified. The credit rating was used to measure the dependent variable, debt repayment ability. The variables of investment purpose, put-option, balloon, and spread in the loan nature, debt ratio in the financial nature, and the CEO's shares and company age in the company nature were found to be significant.

The paper aims to combine balance sheet analysis at the firm level with the International Monetary Fund's public debt sustainability assessment framework to assess state-owned enterprises' (SOE) leverage as a contingent liability to the public sector. Based on company data and the interest coverage ratio as a measure of debt at risk, aggregate baseline scenarios are projected to gauge the magnitude of SOE debt as a contingency. SOE's financial and debt ratios are first bootstrapped to generate firm-level distributions and then averaged into a fan chart of the economy-wide SOE contingent liability. Applied to the People's Republic of China as an example, the study finds that by the end of 2015 SOE leverage had grown to a substantial liability. However arbitrary the assumptions underlying these projections, it would appear that even if authorities had to mop up as much as 20% of SOE debt at risk gone bad, this would have been manageable at roughly 2.7% of the gross domestic product in 2016 or 5.5% by 2021. This projection framework is fully amenable to alternative assumptions and settings, which makes it a useful analytical tool to monitor contingent liabilities from non-financial corporate debt that have been building in emerging and advanced economies alike.

There has been a massive increase in household debt in China, especially in the last five of years. Learning from past experiences, the country needs careful forecasting that may help to form new policies or make amendments to the existing ones. This research paper aims to highlight the impact of the monetary policy on household debt in China. The study covers the time period from 1996 to 2020 The study employs a cointegration test, Autoregressive Distributed Lag Bound Test (ARDL) approach, a Augmented Dicky Fuller (ADF) and PP test (PMG) and time series data. The findings suggest on a quantitative analysis using a time-series model in which gdp per capita and interest rate has a positive impact on household debt whereas, cpi doesn't have significant impact. In a short-term variables relationship, household debt responds more to an increase in income than in the long-term. Also, the impact of interest rate changes on household debt is lower than income in the short run.The research suggests that there should be some restrictions on household debt and consumer financing provided to citizens and for this, appropriate leverage measures should be taken in order for the central bank to sustain robust macroeconomic conditions.

본 논문은 1998년부터 2000년까지 워크아웃으로 지정된 44개 상장기업들을 대상으로, 주거래은행의 부실기업에 대한 출자전환이 워크아웃 대상기업의 회생가능성 뿐만 아니라 은행경영자의 대리문제 유인에 따라 실행되었을 가능성을 실증분석하였다. 실증분석결과, 출자전환이 이루어진 기업들은 대개 기업규모가 크면서 주거래은행의 건전성이 양호하지 못한 경우에 이루어졌으며, 이들의 구조조정 성과 역시 성공적이지 못했던 것으로 분석되었다. 출자전환 결정요인에 관한 로짓분석에서 부실규모가 크고 거래은행의 건전성이 불량할수록 출자전환의 가능성이 높았던 것으로 드러났다. 구조조정의 성패결정요인에 관한 분석결과에서는, 기업규모가 클수록 구조조정시 실패할 가능성이 컸지만, 은행건전성이 우량할수록 부실기업의 회생가능성에 대해 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 출자전환여부와 은행건정성에 따른 부실기업 구조조정의 성과개선에 대한 분석결과에서도, 우량은행이 주도한 구조조정의 경우에는 출자전환한 기업의 사후성과개선이 두드러진 반면, 부실은행이 주도한 경우에는 정 반대의 결과를 보였다. 따라서 본 연구의 분석결과는 1998년 이후 진행된 국내부실기업의 구조조정과정에서 부실은행 경영자가 경제적 요인이 아닌 대리적 동기에 의해 출자전환을 선택했을 가능성이 매우 높았음을 시사한다. 그리고 이러한 분석결과는 구조조정 당시에는 출자전환기업의 재무상황이 열악하지만 구조조정 이후에는 성과가 좋아진다는 James(1995)의 주장과 국내출자전환기업의 사후성과가 더욱 악화된다는 박경서 외 2인(2002)의 주장간 차이의 원인이 주로 부실은행 경영자에 의한 대리 문제에 있었음을 의미한다.

This study aims to know the contribution of external debt to Indonesia's economic growth. The data used a source from the Central Bank of Indonesia from 2011 to 2020. This empirical study uses a quantitative approach with Error Correction Model as the regression method. Government expenditure, government revenue, export, import, inflation, and exchange rate are control variables. The result of the descriptive statistic shows economic growth in Indonesia increased gradually from 2011 to 2020. The increase in economic growth occurred regardless of the contribution of external debt. It does, however, inform the public that Indonesia's economic system has seen successful investments. The result of the study is classified into long-term and short-term. External debt contributes to growth in the long term and has a significant impact. The study's findings will give Indonesia optimism that it can manage external debt as a source of domestic investment. This research may also persuade Indonesia to maintain its economic potency in the future. In the future, this research can be perfected, by adding a threshold level on the amount of Indonesia's external debt.

This study examined the insolvency of debtors using multiple-indicator approaches and compared the outcomes across income levels with the 2016 'Household Financial and Welfare Survey'. This study used (1) the total debt to total assets ratio (DTA), (2) the total debt service ratio (DSR), and (3) the Household Default Risk Index (HDRI) recently developed by the Bank of Korea. Households in the lowest income quintile were more likely to be insolvent than any other income group. Demographics, such as age and gender of the household head, and most of the financial variables significantly increased the likelihood of insolvency based on the DTA. The number of household members and job status increased the likelihood of insolvency based on the DSR. Also, age, gender of the household head, and most of the financial variables increased the likelihood of household insolvency based on the HDRI after controlling for other demographics and financial variables.

With CB data in South Korea, this study examines whether the credit risk of borrowers changes when the regulation on bank mortgage supply is relaxed. We analyze the effect of deregulation on LTV and DTI limits in the Seoul-metropolitan area in August 2014 with a difference-in-difference approach. We find that the probability of delinquency is lower in the Seoul metropolitan area after the deregulation than in other urban areas. The effect is noticeable among low-income and low-credit borrowers. We also find that borrowers change their debt structure to reduce the interest costs utilizing their improved access to bank mortgages. The findings suggest the necessity to consider the burden of the high interest costs of unsecured loans for debtors with low incomes and low credit ratings in designing housing finance regulations.

This study examines the impact of bank restructuring on the financial performance of commercial banks in Vietnam. The data for this study was obtained from the audited financial statements of 30 Vietnamese commercial banks from 2007 to 2019. Multiple regression analysis was used for investigation. Financial performance, as evaluated by ROAA, ROEA, and NIM, is the dependent variable. Financial restructuring, ownership restructuring, and operational restructuring are the independent variables. Pooled least squares (Pooled OLS), fixed effects model (FEM), random effects model (REM), and system generalized moment regression model (System GMM) are the estimate methods used to increase the accuracy of the regression coefficient. The research results show that the variables of financial restructuring activities such as government intervention and the ratio of equity to total assets; variables of ownership restructuring such as capital adequacy ratio, privatization of state-owned commercial banks, mergers, and acquisitions; variables of operational restructuring such as employees, branches, the cost to total assets; GDP variables and the second restructuring period have a positive impact on financial performance. Variables such as debt-to-capital ratio, bad debt ratio, state ownership ratio, expense-income ratio, and inflation have a negative effect on financial performance.
