CEO inside debt and corporate debt maturity structure

Abstract: This paper examines the relation between chief executive officer (CEO) inside debt holdings and corporate debt maturity. We provide robust evidence that inside debt has a positive effect on short-maturity debt and that this effect is concentrated in financially unconstrained firms that face lower refinancing risk. Our analysis further shows that CEO inside debt helps reduce the cost of debt financing. Overall, our results indicate that managerial holdings of inside debt facilitate access to external debt finan… Show more

“…Our measurements for the dependent variable of short‐term debt, ST1 , ST2 , ST3 , ST4 , and ST5 , have mean values of 17.6%, 26.7%, 36.6%, 47%, and 58.2%, respectively. These statistics are consistent with the figures reported in the literature (Brockman et al, ; Dang & Phan, ; Datta et al, ). Most control variables in our sample show values similar to those presented in Datta et al (), Brockman et al (), and Dang and Phan ().…”

“…Second, we contribute to a growing body of literature exploring various determinants of corporate debt maturity structure (e.g., Barclay & Smith, ; Billett, King, & Mauer, ; Brockman, Martin, & Unlu, ; Dang & Phan, ; Guedes & Opler, ; Johnson, ). We generate evidence that including female directors on boards is one factor that shapes corporate debt maturity policies.…”

“…The research design of many past studies relies on the firm's level measures such as growth opportunities, size, matching for the maturity of assets, interest ratio, firm's quality, liquidity etc. (Ataullah et al 2018;Dang and Phan 2016;Katper et al 2017). Moreover, some studies have been more focused on institutional or industrial classification, (Debortoli et al 2017;Fan et al 2012;Jõeveer 2013;Martins et al 2017;Naeem 2012).…”

“…It is now consistently recognized that the adjacent cause for the collapse of such institutions was their refinancing risk due to larger dependability on short-term debts, (Chen et al 2013). The theoretical literature has acknowledged the refinancing risk arising from the short-term debt, (Dang and Phan 2016;Parise 2017). Optimal debt maturity choices play a vital role in the firm's financial structure.…”

“…Given the stance in the literature that stock liquidity influences the corporate financial decisions, we tend to extend this part of literature by examining the effect of stock liquidity on debt maturity decisions. It is worth noting that many seminal works suggest that short‐term debt can be used to mitigate agency costs associated with debt (Barclay & Smith, 1995; Jensen & Meckling, 1976; Myers, 1977) and such that short‐term debt plays a monitoring role over managers and also constrain bad news hoarding behavior (Dang & Phan, 2016). The prior literature asserts that the conflict of interest between the managers and shareholders arise due to the separation of ownership and control, and managers may pursue projects in that benefit them personally rather than maximize shareholders wealth (Jensen & Meckling, 1976).…”
