SUMMARY:Mobolaji Alabi (ICMA) - "The financial impact of Financial Fair Play regulation: Evidence from the English Premier League" - PhD Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nIn response to the ailing financial situation of European Football clubs\, UEFA introduced Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulation in 2011 to guide clubs towards profitability and sustainability. The existing literature is inundated with the impacts of FFP on footballing competitiveness. However\, this study focuses on FFP’s impact on financial performance. The English Premier League (EPL) – with the highest losses and debt level in Europe pre-FFP – is an excellent scene to assess the effectiveness of FFP. Drawing on financial data of 37 football clubs in the EPL and applying difference-in-differences quasi-experiment\, we measure the effectiveness of the regulation. We find statistical significance for improved profitability; however\, solvency is yet to experience similar improvements. We believe our findings and subsequent regulatory recommendations can further improve the financial performance of football clubs.

SUMMARY:Anh Nguyen (ICMA) - "The real impact of sovereign rating changes: Sovereign ceiling or crowding out of public debts?" - PhD Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nThis paper investigates the impacts of sovereign ratings on domestic corporate investments. Based on a sample of 1757 non-financial firms in 51 countries from 1994 to 2018\, we find significant impacts of sovereign ratings on domestic investments\, after controlling for corporate creditworthiness. Specifically\, firms domiciled in a recently downgraded sovereign reduce investments by 32%\, even if their credit ratings are unchanged following the negative sovereign rating event. There is no evidence of increases in firms’ investments following sovereign upgrades. Further investigations reveal that a crowding out effect of government debts is an important channel for corporate-sovereign rating spillovers. Public debt overhangs exacerbate negative impacts of sovereign downgrades on corporate investing activities.
