Abstract

We examine the association between asset liquidity and trade credit. We expect that firms having more asset liquidity prefer to use less trade credit. Using international data of 69 countries, we find that firms having more asset liquidity prefer to use less trade credit. Our results are robust to a wide variety of fixed effects, using change regression, propensity score matching, excluding outliers, and using alternative measures of trade credit and asset liquidity.
