Abstract:
This thesis explores the effects of institutions on macroeconomic performance. It does so in two main chapters, a summary of each of which is given below. In the first main chapter of the thesis, the interactions between government spending, government borrowing, political corruption and political turnover were examined. Incorporating these factors in a sovereign default model, we show how sovereign default decisions and business cycle fluctuations are affected by the level of corruption. In particular, we show that when there is turnover, corruption can generate higher risks of default and hi

Business Administration/Finance<br>Ph.D.<br>Corporate insiders frequently borrow from lending institutions and pledge personal equity shares as collateral for the loan. Using manually collected pledge data for January 2007-December 2011, I examine how this phenomena affects firm investors and analyze agency conflicts between pledging managers and (a) outside shareholders, and (b) bondholders. Pledging potentially influences investor risk through changing managerial incentives and/or contingency risk from ill-timed margin calls.

Capital structure is one of the most frequent topics in the finance literature. This literature has its origins in studies of the manufacturing industry.

The service industry is different than manufacturing industry, and even the hospitality industry is not homogeneous. The restaurant industry and lodging industry are quite different from each other.

Abstract:
Recent increases in stock repurchases among U.S. corporations coupled with a historically low cost of debt since the Global Financial Crisis has created media speculation that firms in recent years are paying for their expanding share buyback programs with debt. Repurchasing stock by increasing leverage, instead of using internal funds, implies that managers may speculate on current low interest rate environments at the expense of shareholders. Recent studies find that stock repurchases are associated with reductions in future firm employment and investments such as capital expenditures and re

Due to the data collecting impediments, this study particularly adopts the Taiwan Corporate Credit Risk Index (TCRI) to present a well-defined beginning and ending date of firm debt-restructuring, which helps us identify the success or failure of private debt restructuring. Moreover, in this study three proxies for completely measuring the degree of bank relationships a

According to information asymmetry and agency theory, managers of firms often have over-investment or under-investment for their own profits, causing the problems of unstable investment expenditures, in turn causing large fluctuations of firm's future operating income and net profit. The empirical results of this study therefore show that the more unstable firm's investment expenditures will increase the volatility of firm's stoc

碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>財務金融研究所<br>98<br>Based on Penman’s (2007) definition, this paper examines the value impact of firms with negative net debt. “Negative net debt” here means holding more financial assets than financial liabilities. We use a total of 2,058 US firms to investigate the relationship between firm value and negative net debt holding during the period from 1998 to 2008. Our evidences show that firms with negative net debt may not necessarily have higher firm value. Hence some other firm characteristic, such as, firm size, the level of cash holdings, and the investment opportunities are

Abstract:
archives@tulane.edu<br>In the theory of capital structure developed by Modigliani and Miller (1958), capital structure is independent of the firm value. Nonetheless, empirical studies report that capital structure affects firm value. Given that most of the recent research is based on capital structures of U.S. firms, this study focuses on capital structure of Mexican firms from 1993 to 2002, offering fresh tests of the pecking order and tradeoff theories. Simple leverage ratio lests agree with the pecking order theory. However, further tests show capital structures move towards target debt rat

碩士<br>國立彰化師範大學<br>會計學系<br>105<br>This paper is to examine whether CEO pay-performance sensitivities and inside debt affect firm innovation. According to agency theory, managers may damage shareholders’ wealth for maximizing their self-interest. Previous literatures have document that CEO compensation scheme is the way for fixing this agency problem. However, different CEO compensation schemes would lead CEOs to have different risk preferences. We try to argue that high CEO pay-performance sensitivity to option would motive CEO to take high risky projects, saying in-house R&D. In other way, gra

The study includes the listed companies from year 2011 to 2016 in Taiwan and classifies the sample of bank loans to two categories, backed by collateral and not backed by collateral. The empirical results show that audit firm changes significantly increase the interest rate of the bank debts that are not backed by collateral because the financial reporting quality decreases and the information risk increases. In contrast, audit firm changes do no

However, there consequently exists the agency problem between the manager and shareholders. To restrain the derived matters, corporate governance devices may be implemented, such as organizing the board of directors, to diminish the unfavorable decision to the company made by the manager (Berle and Means 1932; Fama and Jensen 1983).
