After controlling for the effect of parent banks’ ( PB s) direct ownership, we find that investment by bank‐affiliated venture capitals ( BVC s) is positively associated with the probability that investee firms have loan balances with PB s in the year they issue an IPO . However, BVC s typically sell off their holdings of investee firms within 2 years after the IPO . Furthermore, the level of BVC ownership does not have explanatory power regarding whether investee firms have loans from PB s. On the contrary, PB s’ direct shareholdings have a positive association with the probability that investee firms have PB loans for many years after IPO s.
