2024, International Review of Financial AnalysisDo firms use credit lines to support investment opportunities?: Evidence from success in R&D
2022, Journal of Empirical FinanceCitation Excerpt :First, R&D success provides for new growth opportunities as the primary purpose of corporate R&D is to grow by developing new products or by improving existing production processes. For this to happen, however, a firm generally needs to make a physical investment that incorporates the R&D output and using credit lines appears to be a proper financing strategy based on the characteristics of R&D outputs and credit lines: R&D outputs need to be incorporated into production processes in a timely manner to maximize competitive advantage, and firms demand credit lines primarily for the sake of flexibility and speed in the pursuit of investment opportunities (Avery and Berger, 1991). As a proxy for R&D success I employ patent grants, a commonly used measure of innovation outputs (Cornaggia et al., 2015; Amore et al., 2013; Acharya and Subramanian, 2009; Aghion et al., 2013; Chava et al., 2013; He and Tian, 2013; Hsu et al., 2014).

2021, International Review of Economics and FinanceThe double-edged sword effect of diversified operation on pre- and post-loan risk in the government-led Chinese commercial banks
2020, North American Journal of Economics and FinanceCitation Excerpt :Since the bank can better understand the customer's credit and financial situation through diversified operation, the adverse selection caused by asymmetric information becomes weak and pre-loan risk in commercial banks reduces. The problem of moral hazard caused by information asymmetry after issuing leads to post-loan risk (Avery & Berger, 1991). To recover the loans, commercial banks need to track and manage the loans after issuing and prevent possible risk.
