报告内容摘要:
This study investigates whether and how media news contains predictive information for first-time corporate bond defaults—a challenging and low-frequency event. We develop an interpretable and expert knowledge–driven text analysis framework that embeds financial expertise into textual modeling. Using a comprehensive dataset covering nearly all corporate bonds and media news in China from May 2015 to December 2022, we show that media news provides incremental and economically significant information beyond financial ratios and macroeconomic indicators, generating robust early-warning signals with horizons of at least six months. The empirical evidence demonstrates that, within this specialized financial context, the depth of embedded domain expertise outweighing both the breadth of general knowledge and complexity of the model. Our domain-informed dictionary consistently and robustly exceeds the performance of advanced alternatives, including Large Language Models, BERTopic models, and general-purpose textual lexicons. We further show that state-controlled and market-oriented media play complementary informational roles, differing in thematic focus across firm types yet both exhibiting selective disclosure toward central and state-owned enterprises, thereby revealing how institutional media structures shape information flows in credit markets.
