Financial constraints are a major impediment to economic growth. However, virtually all measures are calibrated with U.S. data and it is therefore not clear whether they work in other jurisdictions. Using data from Brazil during 1996–2022, we test how informative the KZ and SA indices are. We estimate panel regression models of corporate asset growth, market-to-book ratio, payout ratio and ROA on these indices. We find both indices exhibit the expected signs and are significantly related to these corporate outcomes. Finally, our models exhibit a better fit when we use data from the post-IFRS adoption period of Brazilian firms.

公司财务约束的衡量标准是普遍的吗?来自巴西的证据



财政限制是经济增长的主要障碍。然而,几乎所有的衡量标准都是根据美国数据进行校准的,因此尚不清楚它们是否适用于其他司法管辖区。使用 1996 年至 2022 年期间来自巴西的数据,我们测试了 KZ 和 SA 指数的信息量。我们估计了这些指数的公司资产增长、市净率、派息率和 ROA 的面板回归模型。我们发现这两个指数都表现出预期的迹象,并且与这些企业结果显著相关。最后,当我们使用巴西公司采用 IFRS 后时期的数据时,我们的模型显示出更好的拟合。
