Download or read book Corporate Funding and the COVID 19 Crisis written by Andrea Deghi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-03-19 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper assesses whether corporate liquidity needs in the G7 economies were met during the containment phase of the COVID-19 pandemic (February-June 2020) using various approaches to identify credit supply shocks. The pandemic crisis adversely affected nonfinancial corporate sector cash flows, generating liquidity and solvency pressures. However, corporate borrowing surged in March and into the second quarter, thanks to credit line drawdowns and unprecedented policy support. In the United States, the bond market was buoyant from the end of March onward, but credit supply conditions for bank loans and the syndicated loan market tightened. In other G7 economies, credit supply conditions generally eased somewhat across markets during the second quarter. Among listed firms, entities with weaker liquidity or solvency positions before the onset of COVID-19, as well as smaller firms, suffered relatively more financial stress in some economies in the early stages of the crisis. Residual signs of strain remained as of the end of June. Policy interventions, especially those directly targeting the corporate sector, had a beneficial effect on credit supply overall.

Download or read book The COVID 19 Impact on Corporate Leverage and Financial Fragility written by Sharjil M. Haque and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the impact of the COVID-19 recession on capital structure of publicly listed U.S. firms. Our estimates suggest leverage (Net Debt/Asset) decreased by 5.3 percentage points from the pre-shock mean of 19.6 percent, while debt maturity increased moderately. This de-leveraging effect is stronger for firms exposed to significant rollover risk, while firms whose businesses were most vulnerable to social distancing did not reduce leverage. We rationalize our evidence through a structural model of firm value that shows lower expected growth rate and higher volatility of cash flows following COVID-19 reduced optimal levels of corporate leverage. Model-implied optimal leverage indicates firms which did not de-lever became over-leveraged. We find default probability deteriorates most in large, over-leveraged firms and those that were stressed pre-COVID. Additional stress tests predict value of these firms will be less than one standard deviation away from default if cash flows decline by 20 percent.

This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been rightly described as an unprecedented human, economic and financial crisis facing the world. This pandemic has resulted in widespread economic uncertainty and disruption of businesses. COVID-19 has and will have far reaching implications on financial reporting. These circumstances would potentially present entities with several challenges when preparing their financial statements for year/quarter ended 31 March 2020. This book, covers some of the key financial reporting implications that companies need to consider and also, possible approaches that may be considered while dealing with the same up-keeping in view of the business objectives, financial covenants and the accounting standards. The key aspects impacted by COVID-19 for financial reporting are: asset impairment; inventory valuations and write downs; revenue recognition; debt covenants and debt servicing; foreign exchange accounting and losses/gains due to extreme volatility; litigation resulting from contractual defaults, invocation of force majeure clauses and potential exposure; insurance claims for losses during shutdown period or loss of lives; and going concern. The companies shall ensure that they provide sufficient disclosures in the notes to the financial statements with information about the entity that's useful to existing and potential investors, creditors, lenders, and other stakeholders. This book highlights the existing financial reporting requirements under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 that should be considered when addressing the financial effects of COVID 19 while preparing annual financial statements and possible audit approaches that can be considered relevant. The role of auditors at this stage would be under increased scrutiny as the auditors have a public interest obligation to complete the audit work in accordance with professional standards and ethics requirements. Under the current circumstances, auditors must recognise that the manner in which they conducted the audits in the past may need significant modification to address the challenges and uncertainties arising out of the impact of COVID-19. Additionally, irrespective of the challenges and uncertainties, there should not be any dilution in the reporting or non-compliance with the auditing standards in carrying out the audits.

Download or read book Corporate Liquidity and Solvency in Europe during COVID 19 The Role of Policies written by Mr.Christian H Ebeke and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spread of COVID-19, containment measures, and general uncertainty led to a sharp reduction in activity in the first half of 2020. Europe was hit particularly hard—the economic contraction in 2020 is estimated to have been among the largest in the world—with potentially severe repercussions on its nonfinancial corporations. A wave of corporate bankruptcies would generate mass unemployment, and a loss of productive capacity and firm-specific human capital. With many SMEs in Europe relying primarily on the banking sector for external finance, stress in the corporate sector could easily translate into pressures in the banking system (Aiyar et al., forthcoming).

Download or read book Outlasting the Pandemic written by Davide Pettenuzzo and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic massively increased uncertainty about firms' cash flows and access to financial markets. We examine its effect on firms' strategies for preserving cash by suspending dividends and share repurchase programs and raising new funds through bond and equity issues. Our estimates suggest that between March and December 2020 US firms saved a combined $86bn by suspending or reducing dividend payments and another $140bn from suspending buybacks. We identify a short list of firm and stock characteristics that explain most of the cross-sectional variation in firms' payout and financing decisions. We show that the expansive monetary policies pursued by the Federal Reserve in the early phase of the pandemic crucially affected the timing and sequencing of firms' decisions. Announcement effects on stock returns were highly unusual during the pandemic as dividend and buyback suspensions were associated with a more rapid recovery in firms' stock prices, consistent with investors interpreting them as prudent actions that helped reduce risks.

This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Controlling, grade: 1,3, The FOM University of Applied Sciences, Hamburg, course: Value-Based Controlling & Intern. Accounting, language: English, abstract: Due to the COVID 19 pandemic many companies have faced and still face countless challenges. Strategies must be adjusted, and costs must be reduced due to the lack of sales to avoid possible company crises. But how rigorous should profit-oriented management be when the world has been caught off guard by an unprecedented pandemic? Is it possible to combine considerate and entrepreneurial action and how can the interests of all concerned be reconciled? This paper aims to answer and guide these questions. The course of the crisis, the economic consequences and the political measures taken in Germany are discussed. The methodology makes use of current sources and evaluations and sheds light on the shareholder value approach from a historical perspective. It critically examines the application of the concept to the extent of the Corona crisis. Some 23.53 million people were confirmed as infected and about 810,00 deaths were reported worldwide. The COVID 19 pandemic is changing life as known until the start of 2020 at a drastic pace. The course and the effects herald the economic crisis in 2020. On Wall Street, the biggest slump in stock prices since 1987 was reported. Other indices around the world also lost heavily because economic life in many countries had largely come to a stand-still. For 2020, the Federal Government expects the gross domestic product to decline by 6.3 per cent. The reasons for this are well known. The drastic restrictions make it impossible to continue to operate as usual. This means that there will not be a full recovery in 2021 either.

Download or read book Dividend Suspensions and Cash Flow Risk During the Covid 19 Pandemic written by Davide Pettenuzzo and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on firms' decisions to suspend dividends and estimate a model that quantifies the effect of suspensions on growth in aggregate dividends. Our estimates show that dividend suspensions had a large impact on expected future dividend growth and also helped predict the sharp declines observed in broader measures of economic activity. Firms with high leverage and low profitability were more likely to have suspended their dividends during the pandemic as were firms with the largest negative stock returns prior to the dividend announcement date. While firms that suspended their dividends experienced large negative abnormal returns, firms that substantially reduced but did not entirely eliminate dividends saw large positive abnormal returns around the announcement date.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firms face difficult decisions regarding investment in the protection of nonfinancial stakeholders. We find that a firm's financial health plays an important role in mitigating the spread of COVID-19 by studying nursing homes, whose residents have accounted for about 40% of all U.S. COVID-19 deaths. We find that nursing homes with less liquidity (pre-pandemic days-cash-on-hand) had a higher likelihood of COVID-19 reaching patients in their facility. Those experiencing larger negative cash flow shocks also had a much higher likelihood of COVID-19, and the relationship is strongest for financially constrained nursing homes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the pandemic economy: essential reading about the long-term implications of our current crisis. The COVID-19 pandemic has unleashed a firehose of information (much of it wrong) and an avalanche of opinions (many of them ill-founded). Most of us are so distracted by the everyday awfulness that we don't see the broader issues in play. In this book, economist Joshua Gans steps back from the short-term chaos to take a clear and systematic look at how economic choices are being made in response to COVID-19. He shows that containing the virus and pausing the economy—without letting businesses fail and people lose their jobs—are the necessary first steps.
