摘要：
Using a sample of bonds issued by firms acquired by sovereign wealth funds (SWFs), we find a negative relationship between SWFs ownership and maturities of the bonds issued by their target firms. This deterioration in the bond contracting terms supports the political agenda hypothesis suggesting that SWFs, because of their superior information and non-value maximizing agenda, could represent a threat to bondholders and hence exacerbates the agency problem.
