This study aims to examine the antecedent factors of debt policy on the influence of firm growth on firm value. There was a total of 19 companies involved accounting for 95 observational data from a population of 169 companies listed on the Kompas 100 Index of the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2014 to 2018. The data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, classic assumption tests, multiple regression, and hypothesis testing. The results prove that the firm growth, proxied by asset growth or sales growth, did not have a significant influence on the debt policy. Further, there was no significant influence of debt policy on firm value when using debt ratio and also dividend policy as a control variable. In contrast, there was a positive and significant influence on the firm value when using debt to equity ratio proxy, both with or without using the control variable. Therefore, the debt policy was not proven as an antecedent on the influence of firm growth on firm value. This finding implies that there was a tendency for the company management to adopt the policy, which would increase the debt ratio to increase the investors' confidence in the stock market and investors neglect the company's dividend policy.

This research seeks to determine the influence of investment opportunity set (IOS); profitability (Return on Assets - ROA), liquidity, business risk and firm size on debt policy. We used 42 manufacturing companies registered on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (Bursa Efek Indonesia) as object research. We used purposive sampling method to determined samples, consider the period observation from 2012 to 2016, and produce 168 units analysis. Data analysis uses the multiple regressions with the SPSS tools. The results of the study found that companies' debt policies in Indonesia are negatively affected by the liquidity. Investment opportunity set (IOS) has negative effect on debt policy. Meanwhile, ROA, Return on Invested Capital (ROIC), and firm size of a company has no impact on debt policy. These findings indicate that Indonesian manufacture companies do not see the high investment opportunity set and profitability as a policy basis for increasing debt. Moreover, the high profitability also does not cause companies to increase their debt ratio. Our study indicates that Indonesian manufacture companies use internal funds to fund their investment. This finding is a concern for creditors, as they can now see the ability of the companies, and especially their performance, in determining their credit policies.

본 연구는 부채감축을 목표로 시행된 공공기관 정상화 대책이 공기업의 보수적 회계처리에 어떠한 영향을 주었는지를 살펴보고자 한다. 구체적으로 공기업의 부채비율에 따른 보수적 회계처리가 일반적으로 어떠한 행태를 가지는지 검증하고, 공공기관 정상화 대책의 시행으로 보수적 회계처리 행태가 변화하였는지를 검증한다. 분석결과를 요약하면, 공기업의 경우에도 일반 사기업과 동일하게 부채비율과 보수적 회계처리 간에 유의한 양(+)의 관련성이 존재함을 확인하였다. 이는 공기업의 부채비율이 높아질수록 더욱 보수적인 회계처리가 이루어짐을 의미한다. 그러나 양자 간의 관련성은 정상화 대책이 시행된 이후에 유의한 변화가 관찰되지 않았다. 이는 공공기관 정상화 대책의 시행은 공기업의 보수적 회계처리 행태를 변화시키는 요인이 아님을 의미한다. 본 연구의 결과는 최근 보고되는 공기업의 지속적 부채감축 성과가 보수적 회계처리 실무와는 무관하며 실질적인 경영정상화 과정에 의한 것임을 시사한다. 본 연구는 공공기관의 부채감축이 중요시되는 현 상황에서 정부 정책의 효과를 평가하는데 중요한 실증적 증거를 제시하였다는 점에서 의미가 있다.

There has been a massive increase in household debt in China, especially in the last five of years. Learning from past experiences, the country needs careful forecasting that may help to form new policies or make amendments to the existing ones. This research paper aims to highlight the impact of the monetary policy on household debt in China. The study covers the time period from 1996 to 2020 The study employs a cointegration test, Autoregressive Distributed Lag Bound Test (ARDL) approach, a Augmented Dicky Fuller (ADF) and PP test (PMG) and time series data. The findings suggest on a quantitative analysis using a time-series model in which gdp per capita and interest rate has a positive impact on household debt whereas, cpi doesn't have significant impact. In a short-term variables relationship, household debt responds more to an increase in income than in the long-term. Also, the impact of interest rate changes on household debt is lower than income in the short run.The research suggests that there should be some restrictions on household debt and consumer financing provided to citizens and for this, appropriate leverage measures should be taken in order for the central bank to sustain robust macroeconomic conditions.

What explains the sharp increase in the Chinese economy's indebtedness, in particular the China's onshore corporate debt? Has the overall debt burden reached a threshold where it poses a systemic risk, thereby making the economy vulnerable to a "Lehman Moment" - with disorderly unwinding of the private sector and sovereign debt? What are the short and longer term implications of China's growing debt problems on domestic economic growth and the broader global political economy? What has Beijing done to ameliorate the problem, how effective were its efforts, and what must it do to deal with this problem?

This paper investigates the effectiveness of public credit guarantee programs and interest-support programs for SMEs (small and medium enterprises). First, assuming that there is an imperfect information structure in the SME loan market, we analyze how SME support financial programs affect the corporate decisions made by SMEs with regard to default or loan sizes. In addition, this paper theoretically computes the optimal levels of credit guarantee amounts and the interest-support spread under equilibrium with imperfect information in a competitive loan market. Second, the paper empirically analyzes the continuous policy-treatment effect with the GPS (generalized propensity score) method. In particular, we consider the ratio of guaranteed debt to the total debt as a continuous policy treatment. The empirical results show that marginal effects of a credit guarantee on SMEs' productivity, profitability, and growth potential decrease with the ratio of guaranteed debt to the total debt. In addition, the average effect of a credit guarantee is maximized when this ratio is at 50% to 60%.

본 연구는 용인시의 채무제로화 정책과정을 Kingdon의 다중흐름모형을 통해 분석하여 지방정부의 재정역량 강화 및 경쟁력 제고에 기여하고자 하였다. 용인시는 2012년 기준 약 8,000억원의 지방채무를 가지고 있었으나 2017년 초 채무상환을 완료하였다는 점에서 분석대상으로 선정하였다. 분석 결과 첫째, 정책문제의 흐름은 용인시의 채무지표에 대한 인식, 경전철사업의 실패 및 역북지구의 택지분양 실패이다. 둘째, 정치의 흐름은 새로운 지방자치단체장의 당선과 공무원 예산 삭감 등의 행정부 협조, 주민들의 협조로 볼 수 있다. 셋째, 정책대안의 흐름은 대규모 투자사업 축소, 유휴공유 재산 매각을 통한 세입확대 및 세수증대, 경전철 활성화 정책이다. 이러한 정책문제의 흐름, 정치흐름, 정책대안의 흐름이 독립적으로 흐르다가 부동산경기 활성화와 역북지구 매각이라는 정책의 창이 열리면서 경전철 활성화 등의 기타 정책적 요소와 결합하였다. 이 과정에서 긴축재정을 위한 관계기관 협상과 설득 등의 정책선도가의 역할이 크게 작용하였다. 이러한 정책의 산출물로써 용인시는 채무제로를 달성하게 되었다. 본 연구를 통해 지방재정 역량 제고를 위해서 정책선도가의 역할의 중요성 뿐만 아니라 행정부와 시민의 협조, 대형 투자사업 추진 검토체계 등의 제도적 보완이 필요함을 밝혔다.

This paper analyzes how and why household debt distribution by the householder age has changed over the past decade both in Korea and the US. Data shows that the proportion of household debt held by younger households has decreased, while that held by older households has increased. Empirical analysis shows that a change in the demographic distribution of householders is the main driving force that has shifted the household debt distribution. Given that demographic aging is an inevitable trend, the proportion of household debt held by older households is also expected to increase. Therefore, the Korean government must preemptively prepare for the household debt problem, especially for debt held by older households, by strengthening macro-prudential policies, preventing asset price deflation, restructuring household debt contract structures, and reforming labor market inflexibility.

This paper examines the impact of gender on access to debt finance among Vietnamese enterprises. The paper investigates data and variables retrieved from the World Bank Enterprise Survey dataset using five Probit models. The regression results suggest that there exist more unfavourable debt financing conditions for women-led firms (WLF), measured as a lower probability of having loan applications fully approved. Firm's age, working sector, and perception of access to finance as a difficulty are found to have explanatory power on the discrimination. More importantly, the perception of debt finance as a difficulty or firms' level of confidence significantly explains the variance of the dependent variable of probability of loan approval, or gender effect would be more pronounced if the firm already has a low level of confidence. The paper also contributes in testing for the gender effect on Vietnamese enterprises from different sectors and scale, unlike other prior research papers focusing on specific sectors and/or small and medium enterprises only. The findings are highly useful for Vietnamese credit institutions to set out a specific business policy to attract more WLFs and help promoting gender equality in the working environment, especially in debt financing, which is often neglected in existing regulation and policy frameworks.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship among financial debt burden, psychological factors and financial stress. Data was collected by surveying 450 individuals who were over twenty years old, and 384 were used for the analysis. As the result, first, number of sources of debt, use of each debt, marital status/double income, housing, debt amount and financial stress were found to be significantly different among three groups(debt free, non risky, risky). In addition, marital status/double income, gender, housing and income were found to significantly influence to the probability of being one of the three groups. Second, level of debt burden, age, employment and income were found to significantly influence to financial stress, while psychological factors such as risk tolerance and self-control were not. It might be noteworthy that people in debt were likely to have higher level of stress, while the older, employed, and having higher income were likely to have lower level of stress. This study would provide useful information in terms of debt policy to relieve the financial stress.
