Quantitative Market Risk Disclosure, Bond Default Risk and the Cost of Debt: Why Value at Risk

Abstract

dc:description

The empirical analyses on both new and seasoned debt issues show that the reduction in bond default risk and cost of debt is observed more frequently with the value at risk format than with sensitivity analysis. Firm size might be a confounding factor, however, because larger firms choose to disclose more value at risk than sensitivity analysis.
