Abstract

New ventures often require debt financing but face difficulties convincing lenders of their creditworthiness because of agency problems.Researchers have shown that social capital can help small firms reduce lenders' agency concerns but new ventures do not yet have their own social capital.We propose that family involvement increases a venture's ability to borrow family social capital for the purpose of obtaining debt financing.Empirical tests with 1267 new ventures suggest that family involvement directly and indirectly improves a new venture's access to debt financing.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
