Abstract

We examine how the institutional distance between home and host countries is associated with the characteristics of foreign subsidiary debt, including leverage, debt maturity choices, and cash holdings. We utilize the multidimensionality of institutional distances to examine ten different distance dimensions. We use a sample of 3139 foreign subsidiaries operating in France and being headquartered in 44 different countries. We find that while subsidiaries' financing choices are partially explained by standard determinants, they are also significantly associated with different forms of institutional distance. Regarding the heterogeneity of institutional distances, results show the dominance of financial and cultural distances for leverage levels; knowledge and political distances for debt maturities; and a dominance of demographic, geographic, and political distances for cash holdings levels.
