We jointly model financial distress by using two of its key driving factors: declining cash-generating ability and insufficient liquidity reserves. The model is based on stochastic processes and incorporates firm-level and industry-sector developments. A large-scale empirical implementation for US-listed firms over the period of 1980-2010 shows important improvements in the discriminatory accuracy and demonstrates incremental information content beyond state-of-the-art accounting and market-based prediction models. Consequently, this study might provide important ex ante warning signals for investors, regulators and practitioners."}],"author":[{"first_name":"Sönke","last_name":"Sievers","id":"46447","full_name":"Sievers, Sönke"},{"last_name":"Klobucnik","full_name":"Klobucnik, Jan","first_name":"Jan"},{"full_name":"Miersch, David","last_name":"Miersch","first_name":"David"}],"status":"public","jel":["C63","C52","C53","G33","M41"],"year":"2017","page":"84","type":"working_paper","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:54:41Z","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.2237757","publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2237757"}]}
