| Tiivistelmä: | Using a panel data set for Zimbabwe which includes firm-specific measures of contractual risk, the authors show that contractual risk has a major effect on the holding input stocks and, to a lesser extent, the constitution of cash reserves. This is consistent with inventories being a hedge against stockout risk. By contrast, firms facing more inter-annual market risk hold less inventories. |
