Tiivistelmä: | Commercial bank debts of developing countries are held by large international banks and smaller domestic banks. This paper investigates how debt concentration -- the proportion of a country's debt held by large banks relative to small banks -- affects the secondary market price for these loans. The authors find that countries with higher concentrations have higher secondary-market prices. The authors explain this empirical finding in a bargaining model that endogenizes the maximum penalty that banks can credibly impose on a recalcitrant debtor. |
