Results show that conclusions as to the significant variables of spreads depend significantly on whether two-way cluster-adjusted standard errors are utilized, thus rendering results in the extant literature ambigious. The main determinants of global cargo-carrying companies' shipping bond spreads are found in this paper to be: the liquidity of the bond issue, the stock market's volatility, the bond market's cyclicality, freight earnings and the credit rating of the bond issue. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/14670 | ISSN: | 13665545 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.tre.2014.06.001 | Rights: | © Elsevier | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Athens University of Economics and Business Regent's University London |
