The effectiveness of these policies has garnered significant attention from both the government and technology enterprises. Based on panel data from 279 prefecture-level cities in China from 2000 to 2021, this study leverages the pilot policy of “Promoting the Integration of Technology and Finance” as a quasi-natural experiment and employs a Synthetic Control Difference-in-Differences (SCM-DID) model to empirically analyze the impact of technology finance policies on the quality of entrepreneurship in pilot cities. The findings reveal that technology finance policies significantly enhance urban entrepreneurial quality, and this conclusion remains robust after a series of robustness tests. Additionally, the effects of these policies exhibit regional heterogeneity across four dimensions: geographical location, Administrative divisions, education level and urban clusters. Mechanism analysis further indicates that technology finance policies indirectly promote urban entrepreneurial quality by influencing fiscal investment in science and technology as well as talent-driven innovation and entrepreneurship. Based on these findings, this paper proposes targeted policy recommendations. The conclusions provide a new analytical perspective for driving urban entrepreneurial quality while also offering theoretical support and decision-making references for further improving the technology finance policy framework.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48074,"journal":{"name":"Pacific-Basin Finance Journal","volume":"92 ","pages":"Article 102785"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143864118","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}

Our findings indicate that a one-standard-deviation increase in the abnormal BSI (ABSI) corresponds to a significant increase of 1.90 % in the next-day premium between A-H share prices. This finding suggests that increased attention from retail investors causes overpricing, resulting in higher A-H share price premiums. Notably, we observe that mobile searches have a stronger effect on price premiums than do personal computer (PC) searches. A one-standard-deviation increase in the PC-based ABSI leads to a 1.30 % increase, whereas the mobile-based ABSI results in a 1.86 % increase in the A-H share price premium. Additionally, ABSI-driven mispricing lasts 60 trading days until prices converge. Moreover, we find that greater institutional investor ownership reduces ABSI-driven mispricing. Finally, the influence of investor attention on the A-H share price premium diminishes following the implementation of the 2014 Shanghai/Hong Kong Stock Connect Policy, which allows global investors to invest in both the Shanghai and Hong Kong markets. We contribute to the literature by highlighting novel factors affecting the A-H share price premium, including the influence of investor attention, device use, and institutional investor activity.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48074,"journal":{"name":"Pacific-Basin Finance Journal","volume":"92 ","pages":"Article 102784"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143882933","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}

Our analysis of Japanese firms reveals a robust inverse association between allocative efficiency and firm age. This relationship is particularly salient when a firm has assets decreasing its flexibility and when the incongruence of divisional interests in capital allocation is large. Moreover, this effect is not attributable to interfirm differences in external capital access, agency costs, or organizational members' traits. These results suggest that age-based rigidity plays a central role in lowering older firms' allocative efficiency. We also find that despite this adverse effect of aging on capital allocation, diversification mitigates the decline in growth opportunities for older firms.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48074,"journal":{"name":"Pacific-Basin Finance Journal","volume":"92 ","pages":"Article 102760"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143868770","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}

Such herding behavior does not correlate with firms' fundamentals. Instead, herding intensity reduces firms' abnormal returns from repurchasing, and firms' tendency to herd weakens after observing abnormal returns from repurchasing drop, consistent with firms taking the early-mover advantage to maximize abnormal returns.

The main effect is more pronounced among private firms, small-sized and medium-sized firms, and firms in regions with lower degree of financial marketization. The FCRS also aids in addressing the issue of “zombie firms”, mitigating their crowding-out effect on the debt financing of normal firms.
