摘要(Abstract):
文章基于中国A股上市公司发行的公司债数据,研究了金融周期对公司债券契约限制性条款设计的影响。研究发现,当金融周期处于高涨期时,债券契约中限制性条款数量显著减少;当金融周期处于衰退期时,债券契约中限制性条款数量显著增加。金融周期不同阶段通过改变公司融资约束,进而对债券契约中的限制性条款数量产生影响。异质性分析表明,金融周期对债券契约中限制性条款数量的影响在非国有性质、信息透明度低和市场化水平低的公司中表现更加明显。进一步分析表明,金融周期对不同类型限制性条款使用数量的影响存在差异;金融周期顶部区域对限制性条款使用数量的影响表现出特殊性,这从金融周期变动视角为保护债券投资者的利益提供了新思路。
