Book Synopsis Usage of Convertible and Warrant Bonds by Japanese Firms by : Hoje Jo

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the risk-shifting and delayed equity explanations for Japanese firms using convertible securities in their financing mix. The popularity of equity-linked debt instruments in Japan where institutional arrangements mitigate the incentives to transfer wealth from bondholders to stock holders seems inconsistent with the risk-shifting explanation. Also the probability of choosing convertible securities over common equity is not positively related to the potential to transfer wealth from the bondholders to the stockholders. Similar results are obtained when we examine convertible debt ratios. However, we find evidence consistent with Stein's (1992) argument that firms use convertibles to delay equity when they have favorable information about the firm. The price increases preceding and following convertible issues and convertible usage are positively related to offering size and growth opportunities as predicted by Stein (1992). Overall, our findings support the delayed-equity explanation for Japanese firms issuing convertibles, but provide little support for the risk- shifting hypothesis.

Book Synopsis Pricing Convertible Bonds by : Kevin B. Connolly
Download or read book Pricing Convertible Bonds written by Kevin B. Connolly and published by Wiley. This book was released on 1998-10-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Convertible Bonds (CB) market is growing all the time. To date, over one trillion dollars worth of CBs are in circulation. Corporations are finding this source of fund-raising more and more attractive. And for different reasons, the buyers are finding CBs increasingly attractive investment vehicles. There are few works on the subject of pricing convertible bonds. Most books discussing derivative products cover all details of pricing futures and options in minute detail. Convertible bonds and warrants are usually mentioned as an after thought in the latter chapters. This is the first book to address the very complex issue of pricing convertible bonds. Kevin Connolly, Researcher of complex volatility trading for Refco Overseas Ltd. and Lecturer at City University Business School and London Guildhall University, has put together an excellent treatment of pricing convertible bonds, delving into topics such as: * Returns distributions and associated descriptive statistics * Modeling the share price process * The basic convertible bond model * Introducing the complications * Convertible bond sensitivities * Using equity warrant models to price CBs * Refix clauses Fund managers, hedge players/traders, undergraduates and postgraduates will find this book invaluable. Easy to understand software on Microsoft Excel spreadsheets is also supplied.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analysis shows how financial development has occurred in two distinct phases.

Book Synopsis Policy-based Finance, Financial Regulation, and Financial Sector Development in Japan by : Dimitri Vittas
Download or read book Policy-based Finance, Financial Regulation, and Financial Sector Development in Japan written by Dimitri Vittas and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: April 1995 Is Japan a good model for developing countries? Certainly macroeconomic stability, good information systems, effective monitoring, and financial discipline are essential for smooth-functioning, efficient financial systems. But is there scope for state intervention in organizing the financial system and using well-designed, narrowly focused directed credit programs in the transition from malfunctioning financial systems to modern, efficient ones? The Japanese government's role in creating a macroeconomic and financial environment conducive to rapid industrialization and economic growth went beyond maintaining price stability, say Vittas and Kawaura. The government created a stable but segmented and tightly regulated financial system that favored the financing of industry over other sectors of economic activity. Lending practices, the direction of policy-based finance, and the structure of Japan's financial system changed over time, but one thing stayed constant: the authorities' vision. Some observers maintain that Japanese policies -- emphasizing the development of internationally competitive industries -- retarded economic growth. And government policies were not the only or even the most important factor in Japan's success. One key to success was government agencies' close cooperation with the private sector, and the government's reliance on privately owned and managed corporations to achieve government-favored industrial goals. Japan's financial system was quite different from Anglo-American and continental European financial systems. Vittas and Kawaura discuss some characteristics of the Japanese system in the high growth era: * The preponderant role of indirect finance. * The overloan position of large commercial banks. * The overborrowing of industrial companies. * Artificially low interest rates. * The segmentation and fragmentation of the financial system. * The underdevelopment of securities markets and institutional investors. * The key role played by the main bank system. * The close relations between banks and industry. * The different roles debt and equity played in the Japanese system. * The role large conglomerate groups, especially general trading companies, played in channeling funds to small firms at the industrial periphery. * The role of policy-based financial institutions. These features evolved in the context of high savings rates and an accumulation of assets, mobilized mostly through deposit institutions, including the postal savings system, and transformed into short- and long-term and risky loans through commercial and long-term credit banks as well as specialized government financial institutions. Are hard work and good management the secrets of Japan's success? Hard work may be as much a symptom as a cause of economic success, say Vittas and Kawaura. But good management has unquestionably been a key to Japan's economic success. Whether Japan's approach is better than others is more difficult to answer. Japan may have overtaken several European countries but was still lagging behind the United States and a few European countries in per capita income expressed in purchasing power parity terms. And although the Japanese approach played a significant part in promoting industrialization and accelerating economic growth during the period of reconstruction and high growth, it also entailed significant long-term costs -- in terms of poor-quality housing and other urban infrastructure, for example. And the excesses of the 1980s and Japan's current economic recession undermine claims about its ability to continuously outperform other countries. This paper -- a product of the Financial Sector Development Department -- is part of a project to study the effectiveness of credit policies in East Asia.

Book Synopsis Markets for Corporate Debt Securities by : T. Todd Smith
Download or read book Markets for Corporate Debt Securities written by T. Todd Smith and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1995-07-01 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper surveys markets for corporate debt securities in the major industrial countries and the international markets. The discussion includes a comparison of the sizes of the markets for various products, as well as the key operational, institutional, and legal features of primary and secondary markets. Although there are some signs that debt markets may be emphasized in the future by some countries, it remains true that North American debt markets are the most active and liquid in the world. The international debt markets are, however, growing in importance. The paper also investigates some of the reasons for the underdevelopment of domestic bond markets and the consequences of firms shifting their debt financing needs from banks to securities markets.
