| Tiivistelmä: | Corporations issue foreign currency-denominated (hereafter as: f-c-dtd.) debt to hedge foreign currency (here as: f-c.) cash flows with offsetting interest payments. This paper tests an alternative "opportunistic" motive for foreign f-c-dtd. borrowing by constructing a comprehensive sample of f-c-dtd. bonds issued by sovereign government and agency issuers with no f-c. cash flows or foreign operations. Among others, there is found strong and consistent evidence that the borrowers in this study's sample consider cross-currency differences in covered and uncovered interest yields in choosing the currency in which to denominate their international debt etc. |
