We are specifically interested in the implications and efficacy of these special kinds of tax incentives that are commonly used to encourage investments in risky assets internationally. We also allow for tax rate uncertainty. We show that the effects of these tax exclusions on investors are nuanced and may not always achieve the desired policy objective of stimulating higher investments in risky assets. We identify the endogenously computed regions with shared common boundaries where increasing capital gains tax exclusions will stimulate higher demand for risky assets, have no effect on demand at all, or even have an opposite effect by reducing demand. While our results apply to tax exclusions in general, we provide two specific examples using (i) data from the United States housing market, and (ii) the United Kingdom stock market, for a CRRA investor. We also provide insights on the pricing and related issues for these tax-favored risky assets.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15525,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Finance","volume":"94 ","pages":"Article 102814"},"PeriodicalIF":7.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144653276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our findings demonstrate that firms operating in pilot areas significantly decrease their cash holdings following the introduction of e-CNY. Mechanism tests indicate that e-CNY serves as a novel governance mechanism that reduces firm agency costs, thereby diminishing agency motives for cash hoarding. It also acts as a powerful surveillance tool that leads to greater government subsidies, broader access to bank loans, and lower debt financing costs, thus reducing precautionary and transactional motives for holding cash. Additionally, dynamic tests suggest that e-CNY increases firms' cash adjustment speed.
