The Real Effects of Bank-Driven Termination of Relationships: Evidence from Loan-level Matched Data

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: We examine the effects of bank-driven terminations of bank-borrower relationships on the investments of borrowing firms by exploiting a matched dataset of Japanese banks and listed firms from 1991 to 2010. We find that while bank-driven terminations do not always affect investment, they do when the firms facing termination have difficulty in either establishing a new relationship or increasing borrowings within their existing relationship. Our findings coincide with the prediction of existing theoretical models whereby financial frictions in a matching process in credit markets play an important role in firm investment.
