Bank's Market Power and Firm Access to Capital Markets in Asia
2013
Management Science and Financial Engineering
We investigate the effect of bank's market power on financing constraints of non-financial firms in 11 Asian countries between 1995 and 2009. Using firm-level data we analyze financial constraints with the Euler equation derived from the dynamic investment model. We find that with a highly concentrated banking sector firms which have high market power are less financially constrained. These results are consistent with an information-based hypothesis that more market power increases bank's advantage to produce information on potential borrowers.
