Abstract(s)
O presente trabalho visa elaborar uma análise comparada da maturidade da dívida de empresas dos Estados Unidos da América, cotadas no índice de New York Stock Exchange, face às empresas chinesas, cotadas no índice de Shanghai Stock Exchange, num período compreendido entre 2004 a 2014.
Na análise dos determinantes da maturidade da dívida, utilizamos como variáveis explicativas a oportunidade de crescimento, a dimensão, a qualidade e a maturidade dos ativos da empresa, a taxa efetiva de imposto, a volatilidade das taxas de juros, a estrutura temporal das taxas de juros e a volatilidade do valor da empresa. A metodologia empírica utilizada foi a Pooled OLS.
O nosso modelo incorpora os fatores que representam três teorias, sendo estas o custo de agência, a assimetria de informação e característica dos países.
Os resultados confirmam a aplicabilidade na maioria das teorias da maturidade da dívida de ambos os países. Não encontrámos evidências de que a taxa efetiva de imposto e a volatilidade das taxas de juros tenham afetado a maturidade da dívida.
The purpose of this study is to compare the debt maturity of US-based companies, listed on the New York Stock Exchange index, with Chinese companies, listed on Shanghai Stock Exchange index. From 2004 to 2014, it was possible to withdraw 12,497 observations from the NYSE index and 12,089 observations from the SSE index. In the analysis of the determinants of debt maturity and in order to estimate a model through ordinary least squares, the explanatory variables used were: growth opportunities, company size, company quality, maturity of the company’s assets, effective tax rate, volatility of interest rates, structure of interest rates and the term of volatility of the company's value. Our model incorporates the factors that represent three theories (Cost agency, information asymmetry and characteristic of countries). The results confirm the applicability in most theories of debt maturity of both countries. Found no evidence that the effective tax rate and the volatility of interest rates affect the debt maturity.
