演講摘要 : This paper discusses the roles of bank in the conglomerate using Taiwan business group data. We raise three hypotheses to examine the roles of bank as (1) a provider of group firms’ financing, which is tested by the financial constraint hypothesis. (2) an insurer of group firms’ liquidity, which is dubbed as by the liquidity insurance hypothesis, (3) a monitor of group firms’ operation, which is the cheaper funding cost hypothesis. Our results strongly support the first and the second hypotheses but reject the third one.
