Using data on political contributions from 1998 to 2016, we explore whether CEOs' political affiliations create a cyclical pattern in the professional labor market, favoring those aligned with the ruling party. Our analysis reveals that Republican partisan CEOs are more successful in securing directorships under Republican regimes (George Walker Bush, 2003∼2008), while the reverse holds under Democratic regimes (Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. 2009∼2014). These results remain robust after addressing potential endogeneity using presidential election outcomes as an instrumental variable.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"71 ","pages":"Article 106428"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142660472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings show that, due to their unique attributes, green bonds tend to have lower liquidity than conventional bonds; this results in higher liquidity costs, which counterbalance the cost benefits of the green premium.

Previous studies have largely focused on traditional economic indicators, overlooking how education investment and human capital collectively shape multidimensional development outcomes across China's diverse regions. To address this gap, we construct a novel development index incorporating innovation, sustainability, and social progress metrics, analyzing panel data from 31 Chinese provinces (2000–2020) through two-way fixed effects models with instrumental variables. Our findings reveal that higher education investment significantly enhances comprehensive development, with this effect amplified in regions with greater human capital accumulation. Notably, regional heterogeneity analysis demonstrates stronger investment effectiveness in eastern provinces compared to central regions, while western provinces show no significant relationship.
