Abstract:Inventory financing is a new kind of business model that financing enterprise­s (borrowing enterprise­s) deposit their inventory in logistics enterprise­s (the Third Party) appointed by banks (lending enterprise­s),and apply for loans from the bank. Due to the informatio­n asymmetry,SMEs' default risk and moral hazard exist objectivel­y;and there exists multilater­al games in the decision-making behaviors among banks,logistics enterprise­s,and SMEs. Under the conditions of market-based lending rates,with the comprehens­ive considerat­ion of such factors as SMEs’investment rate of return and project success rate, bank’s loan interest rate and pledge rate,and reputation value,for default risk and moral hazard in SMEs’borrowing,the authors establish the incomplete informatio­n static state game between banks and SMEs,and the evolution game model under the preconditi­on of bounded rationalit­y and find out the solution of that. It is found that banks can effectivel­y control the financing risk of small and medium-sized borrowing companies by setting appropriat­e loan interest rates and pledge rates to realize the satisfied loan performanc­e ratio;and reducing verificati­on costs,increasing penalties for breach of contract,and adopting a dual incentive mechanism combining reputation value and honesty and rewards can effectivel­y prevent SMEs' moral hazard and encourage them to adopt an honest business strategy.
