Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research investigated the factors that affect the marginal value of cash and the relationship between the marginal value of cash and market reactions to payout. First, I found that due to agency problems, the marginal value of cash is significantly lower for firms engaging in cross-shareholding than for independent firms. I also found that a financial constraint measured by firms' bond ratings does not impact the marginal value of cash.
Next, I found that the market assesses favorably the payout decision of firm with lower-valued cash, suggesting that firms should pay out cash to shareholders when their marginal value of cash is valued lower.
