Are bonds suitable to determine arm’s length interest rates of intercompany loans and do intercompany loans have to be collateralized? an empirical investigation electrónico / Felix Ebeling, Nik Nolden and Gregor Schneider .-- , 2021
Disponible únicamente el formato electrónico.
Resumen.
A unique data set of more than 5,000 corporate bond and loan transactions between third parties was used to analyse two issues related to the arm’s length interest rate determination in practice. First the analysis presented in this article shows that the interest rate differences between the bonds and loans are statistically significant, but economically irrelevant. Second, when considering whether intercompany loans have to be collateralized, it can also be shown that unrelated parties too do not always agree on collateral. Moreover, within multinational groups, collateralization of intercompany loans would by no means appear to be compulsory based on economic theory.
