Abstract

ABSTRACTA captive finance company is a wholly owned subsidiary whose primary business is to finance the sales of the parent's products and services. Despite the continued growth and long history of captive finance companies, the issue of the economic impact of forming a captive remains controversial. Some view captive finance subsidiaries as unnecessary structures that may actually reduce the value of the firm. Others hold that captives can produce benefits that will increase firm value. The primary purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the finance academic literature and to suggest direction for future research.
