    Hard capital rationing

    1) Adverse economic conditions
    2) No more non-current assets for security
    3)High Operating gearing
    4)High financial gearing
    5)Low interest covering.
    6) Government policy to reduce money supply in economy
    7) Monetary policy of increasing interest rates.

    Sir this is what I understand as per
    Soft rationing and hard rationing
    Is it correct sir

    Thank you in advance

    Soft Capital Rationing:

    1) Pursuit of organic growth
    2)Reluctance to dissolve ownership
    3) Creation of robust internal market so that only best investments would be made
    4) Reducing gearing & increasing Interest cover
    5) Maintenance of EPS thus no share issues.

    Am I correct ?

    Hard capital rationing is when they are not able to borrow more. This could be a result of the things you have listed but would not have to be.

    Soft capital rationing is when they can borrow more but they choose not to, which again could be due to the things you have listed but do not have to be.

    I give examples of both hard and soft rationing in my lectures.
