Do local governments use municipal companies for off-balance-sheet financing?

This paper investigates whether municipalities in Poland use their municipal companies to increase debt capacity beyond the limitations imposed by the fiscal debt rules. The article presents corporate governance and agency problems on the example of relations between local government units and affiliated companies. We review and link literature on corporate finance, in particular capital structure, and public finance - debt liabilities of municipalities. We analyse a sample of 2,019 observations of municipalities and their municipal companies using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method, where explanatory variables were taken from the public and corporate finance (leverage and its determinants). Results show that long-term debt of municipalities is positively associated with the leverage and size of municipal companies, but it is negatively related to their profitability.

Determinants of corporate R&D expenditures: the role of taxes

The paper aims to find the relationship between corporate expenditures on R&D and tax burdens comparing German with French R&D incentives. We use the OLS method for the financial and patent cross-sectional data retrieved from the Amadeus database. The results confirm that firms with higher tax spread (the difference between the nominal and effective tax rates) spend less on R&D. These are in line with findings of a positive relationship between corporate R&D investment and tax burdens. Thus, firms that invest in R&D more pay higher taxes. However, they are less profitable as the return on R&D investment is visible only in the long run. German corporate expenditures on R&D are significantly sensitive to internal funds (proxied by cash flow) and depend on debt, contrary to French. The results indicate that the French firm's age (a phase of life cycle) has a significant impact on spending on R&D compared to German. Whereas in both countries, corporate expenditures on R&D are sensitive to the number of obtained patents. The capability of reducing the level of tax burdens below the nominal tax rate in the case of older German firms stimulates them to increase their R&D expenditures. However, German firms can decrease tax due to the use of R&D grants (revenues without taxation) in the absence of other tax incentives related to R&D.

The paper aims to find what determines the choice of companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE) between public debt (corporate bonds) and private debt (bank loans). For this purpose, we estimate logistic regression models and panel models of corporate borrowing determinants to compare the impact of enterprise characteristics on financing with the use of corporate bonds or bank loans. In this study, we are interested in explanatory variables that explain the role of transparency measured by the level of information disclosure; and a risk proxy of the variability of operational cash flows and investment risk (retrieved from generalised auto-regressive conditional heteroscedasticity [GARCH] models estimated on companies’ stocks [shares] trading on the WSE).

In this article, we study the substitution between leasing and bank loans in financing the investment of small companies. The analysis is based on financial information about Polish companies listed on NewConnect, which used financial leasing in the period of 2012–2016. We argue that leasing and bank loans are the substitute in financing the investment of small companies. We estimate the probability of financial leasing and its size using the tobit and logit models. We find that financial leasing and bank loan, for Polish small companies, are complementarity. Our empirical results indicate that financial leasing and bank loans are complementary sources of financing investment in fixed assets. Also the higher the usage of financial leasing, the higher the likelihood that the enterprise is indebted because of long-term bank loan – complementarity.
