Credit Constraint Exports in Countries with Different Degrees of Contract Enforcement

Abstract: We theoretically consider firms' export decisions in a heterogeneous firm framework. The paper assumes firms have idiosyncratic productivity levels and are credit-constrained in the export market. Firms in different countries have different degrees of credit constraints. Because of imperfect financial markets, firms might not be able to get the financial support to export even although they are profitable enough from the foreign market. In a country with strong contract enforcement, firms are more likely to ex… Show more

“…Jamal and Tan (2010) find in an experiment using experienced financial managers that a more principles-based standard system improves financial reporting quality, but only in cases where auditors are in a more principles-based mindset.

Contrariwise, a weaker contractual enforcement regime denies companies the requisite credit that would have otherwise allowed for export to more destinations (Guo & Luo, 2017). However, for companies with either very high or very low productivity, the foregoing does not happen.…”
