TY - UNPD A1 - Pianeselli, Daniele A1 - Zaghini, Andrea T1 - The cost of firms' debt financing T2 - Center for Financial Studies (Frankfurt am Main): CFS working paper series ; No. 2013,03 N2 - We provide an assessment of the determinants of the risk remia paid by non-financial corporations on long-term bonds. By looking at 5,500 issues over the period 2005-2012, we find that in recent years the sovereign debt market turbulence has been a major driver of corporate risk. Compared with the three-year period 2005-07 before the global financial crisis, in the years 2010-12 Italian, Spanish and Portuguese firms paid on average between 70 and 120 basis points of additional premium due to the negative spillovers from the sovereign debt crisis, while German firms got a discount of 40 basis points.
