Abstract

ABSTRACTThis article presents evidence suggesting that the relationship that existed between the partnership of J. P.

I estimate and compare investment regression equations for a sample of Morgan‐affiliated companies and a control group of nonaffiliated companies. The econometric results seem to indicate that companies not affiliated to the House of Morgan were liquidity constrained.
