  • Derivatives Supply and Corporate Hedging: Evidence from the Safe Harbor Reform of 2005
    Derivatives Supply and Corporate Hedging: Evidence from the Safe Harbor Reform of 2005 Erasmo Giambona Ye Wang Syracuse University, Whitman School Shanghai University of Finance and of Management Economics [email protected] [email protected] This Draft: September 1, 2017 Abstract This paper analyzes the importance of supply-side frictions for corporate hedging. To identify this relationship, we exploit a regulatory change that allows derivatives counterparties to circumvent the Bankruptcy Code’s automatic stay and preference rules: The Safe Harbor Reform of 2005. Following the reform-induced expansion in the availability of derivatives, fuel hedging of airlines near financial distress (those that benefited the most from the reform) increased significantly relative to financially sound airlines. Similarly, we find that hedging propensity increased for a general sample of non-financial firms. In line with theory, we also find that firm’s value and performance increased after the 2005 reform for the affected firms. Our analysis provides also evidence consistent with unsecured creditor “runs”. Keywords: supply-side frictions, safe harbor reform, fuel hedging, airlines, firm's value, unsecured creditor runs. * Erasmo Giambona, Michael J.

Ye Wang, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, 777 Guoding Road, Shanghai, Shanghai 200433, China. We are grateful for comments from Murillo Campello and seminar participants at the University of Amsterdam. 1. Introduction Economic theory suggests that firms hedge to mitigate credit rationing (Froot, Scharfstein, and Stein, 1993; Holmström and Tirole, 2000), to reduce information asymmetry (DeMarzo and Duffie, 1991, 1995; Breeden and Viswanathan, 2016), or to alleviate the risk of financial distress (Smith and Stulz, 1985; Stulz, 2013).

  • The Economics of Post-September 11 Financial Aid to Airlines
    THE ECONOMICS OF POST-SEPTEMBER 11 FINANCIAL AID TO AIRLINES MARGARET M. BLAIR* INTRODUCTION In one of the first legislative responses to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Congress passed the Air Transportation Safety and System Stabilization Act1 (ATSSSA), and President Bush signed it into law on September 23, 2001.2 The ATSSSA provided $5 billion in immediate and direct payments to airlines to compensate them for losses resulting from the federal ground stop order during the first four days after the attack, and for further losses that the airlines were expected to incur as a result of reduced air traffic from September 23 through December 31, 2001.3 The ATSSSA also created the Air Transportation Stabilization Board (ATSB)4 and authorized it to issue federal credit instruments, such as direct loans or loan guarantees, totaling up to $10 billion,5 to assist air carriers whose financial survival was put at risk by the terrorist attacks and the subsequent collapse in air traffic.6 The ATSSSA also caps the aggregate liability of each airline arising from the September 11 incidents or other terrorist acts at $100 million7 and expands the existing authority for the government to provide war-risk liability insurance for aircraft operating on certain foreign routes8 to cover domestic routes as well.9 The new authority authorizes the Department of Transportation to subsidize insurance costs for at least 180 days after passage of the ATSSSA.10 As of early November 2002, the ATSB had closed on a loan guarantee of * Sloan Visiting Professor, Georgetown University Law Center.

  • 480.693.5729 Us Airways to Reduce Pittsburgh Service in Early 2008
    Contact: 480.693.5729 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE US AIRWAYS TO REDUCE PITTSBURGH SERVICE IN EARLY 2008 Flights Continue to Destinations Customers Fly Most; Operations Control Center; Maintenance Base Remain in Pittsburgh TEMPE, Ariz., Oct. 3, 2007 — US Airways (NYSE: LCC) today announced it plans to reduce mainline flying in January from 31 to 22 daily flights, focusing on customers’ preferred destinations, as the airline continues to maximize the financial stability of its Pittsburgh operation. As part of the new schedule, regional flying to smaller cities is expected to be reduced from 77 to 46 daily flights. Most of the expected reductions for smaller cities reflect decisions that we expect to be made by independent regional carriers that develop their own plans and schedules. These carriers have not finalized their schedules so the overall level of Express flying may change. With the reduced schedule, the airline’s flight crew base will close and approximately 500 pilots and flight attendants will now bid for trips that originate from other domiciles within the US Airways system. Also with the new schedule, US Airways mainline airport agents and ramp employees will take over customer service and ground-handling duties for 350 US Airways Express employees at wholly owned carrier PSA Airlines, Inc. Those Express employees, along with about 100 US Airways mainline airport employees, will be offered jobs elsewhere throughout the US Airways system. “We’ve worked very carefully over the past two years to make the right decisions at Pittsburgh for our customers and the airline as a whole, always mindful of the impact those decisions may have on our employees,” said Doug Parker, US Airways chairman and CEO.
