Notes : The estimates were obtained using a probit model. Columns 2 and 4 report the marginal effects evaluated at covariate means. The dependent variable is a dummy equal to one if the firm is a bond issuer, and zero otherwise. Robust z-statistics in parentheses. All firm-specific variables are lagged one period. In columns 1 and 2 IND is a variable measuring the size of local currency bond obligations as a percentage of nominal GDP. In columns 3 and 4 IND denotes the extent of trading in the secondary market relative to the amount of bonds outstanding. Time dummies, industry dummies and country dummies are included in the models.
