Original Kurzfassung:
Loan managers? trust in entrepreneurs can be a useful tool for overcoming entrepreneurial firms? opaqueness. Nevertheless, the
possibility for loan managers to leverage trust can be affected by
differences in the regulative institutions within the banks (type of
bank) and by place-bound normative institutions (social context).
By relying on semi-structured interviews and a survey of 450 bank-entrepreneur relationships, this study finds that a positive impact of
trust in lending relationships is sensitive to different place-bound
normative institutions and to the regulative institutions within the
banks. The results are robust with respect to potential endogeneity
issues.
