The empirical results show that the ratio of trade credit to bank loan is positively associated with the firm-specific crash risk while a good institutional environment reduces this positive relationship. In addition, considering the firm＇s ownership type, the authors find that the positive relationship between the debt structure and crash risk is more significant in the SOEs.展开更多

The results show that companies with higher earnings information have higher investment efficiency, and the quality of earnings information has increased investment efficiency by reducing the lack of investment and suppressing overinvestment. The companies with higher short-term debt ratio show higher investment efficiency. The results show that there is a certain substitution effect between the effect of earnings information quality and the maturity strueture of debt on the efficiency of investment.展开更多
