Financial Constraints and Firm Dynamics
The short run effects of financial constraints (FCs) on the expected growth rate of firms and their long-term implications on the evolution of the firm size distribution have been recently investigated by several scholars. In this paper we extend the analysis to a wider and largely unexplored range of possible FCs effects, including the autoregressive and heteroskedastic structure of the firm g...
متن کاملFinancial Markets and Firm Dynamics
Recent studies have shown that the dynamics of firms (growth, job reallocation and exit) are negatively correlated with the initial size of the firm and its age. In this paper we analyze whether financial factors, in addition to technological differences, are important in generating these dynamics. We introduce financial market frictions in a basic model of industry dynamics with persistent sho...
متن کاملFirm Dynamics and Financial Development
This paper studies the impact of cross-country variation in financial market development on firms’ financing choices and growth rates using comprehensive firm-level datasets. We document that in less financially developed economies, small firms grow faster and have lower debt to asset ratios than large firms. We then develop a quantitative model where financial frictions drive firm growth and d...
متن کاملFluctuations in Uncertainty, Efficient Borrowing Constraints and Firm Dynamics∗
This paper quantifies the importance of aggregate fluctuations in microeconomic uncertainty for firm dynamics over the business cycle in an economy with endogenously frictional financial markets. To begin, I provide evidence on asymmetric response across age and size groups of firms in the U.S. to the changes in aggregate economic conditions. I argue that age rather than size is a relevant marg...
متن کاملFinancing Constraints, Firm Dynamics, Export Decisions, and Aggregate Productivity
We present a dynamic model in which firms accumulate wealth to avoid bankruptcy and to overcome financing constraints that affect their fixed operational costs and the costs of becoming an exporter. Financing constraints not only affect firms directly when they are binding, but also indirectly, through precautionary saving and the selection of firms via entry and exit of the domestic and export...
