Abstract Entrepreneurs appear to raise funds largely against their near-term revenues, even when their investment has a longer horizon. To explain why, we develop a model of credit horizons in which human capital of entrepreneurs-cum-engineers is essential for constructing and then maintaining production facilities. Yet, their human capital is inalienable. We use our framework to examine how credit horizons interact with plant dynamics and the evolution of productivity. Finally, we show that a permanent fall in the interest rate in small open economy can lead to a temporary boom followed by a slower growth in the long run.
