| Abstract: | The author develops and estimates a model of cash auction bankruptcy using data on 205 Swedish firms. He shows that a sale of the assets back to incumbent management is a common bankruptcy outcome. Sale-backs are more likely when they favour the bank at the expense of other creditors. |
