Using a cross-sectional firm data employed in the Philippines, we present an ordinal logistical regression analysis where we examine the relationship of firm characteristics to the likelihood of increased access to credit of firm in the said country. Firm characteristics include firm size, firm age, industry, region, ownership, and gross profit margin. The analytical results indicate that firm size, region and foreign ownership are the significant firm characteristics that lending institutions consider in granting loans to firm in the Philippines.

Results also suggest that lending institutions often disregard firm's age and profitability in making loan decisions. 2011-01-01T08:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/etd_bachelors/11396 Bachelor's Theses English Animo Repository Business Administration, Management, and Operations |
