Firm Value, Exchange Rates, and Inflation; References 330 $aThe paper shows how-in a Merton-type model with bankruptcy-the currency composition of debt changes the risk profile of a company raising a given amount of financing, and thus affects the cost of debt. Foreign currency borrowing is cheaper when the exchange rate is positively correlated with the return on the company's assets, even if the company is not an exporter. Prudential regulations should therefore differentiate among loans depending on the extent to which borrowers have ""natural hedges"" of their foreign currency exposures. 410 0$aIMF working paper ;$vWP/09/110. 606 $aCredit$xMathematical models 606 $aFinancial risk management 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCredit$xMathematical models. 615 0$aFinancial risk management. 700 $aGalai$b Dan$0147260 701 $aWiener$b Zvi$0992875 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464017303321 996 $aCredit risk spreads in local and foreign currencies$92273595 997 $aUNINA
