Abstract

This paper analyzes the relationship between the level of underwriters' reputation and corporate ABS issuance spreads, using domestic issuance of corporate bond-type ABS as a research sample from 2017–2022. The study issues that: underwriters' reputation has a significant inverse relationship with corporate ABS issue spreads, and the higher the underwriters' reputation, the smaller the corporate ABS issue spreads, all other things being equal; for issuers with different natures of ownership, their are significant differences in the degree of influence of underwriters' reputation on issue spreads.
