The results indicate that the implementation of medium- and long-term loan policies can effectively reduce the energy consumption of manufacturing enterprises and promote energy transformation. Among, for small and medium-sized enterprises and non-heavily polluting manufacturing enterprises, the role of state-owned enterprises is more significant. However, firms affected by the US-China trade war and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate hike are not significantly positively affected by lending policies. In addition, the expansion of medium- and long-term loan policies for the manufacturing industry can promote the energy transformation of the manufacturing industry by easing the financing constraints of enterprises, which has important theoretical significance for the implementation of China’s fiscal and taxation policies. Lastly, policies can improve the level of economic performance of firms and lead to an increase in the number of innovators in firms.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48331,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Money and Finance","volume":"152 ","pages":"Article 103250"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143171722","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}

We find that fiscal consolidation announcements reduce inflation expectations over the medium-term (three and five-years ahead), but not in the short-term (one-year ahead). There is also some evidence that consolidation announcements reduce “disagreement” about expected future inflation at longer horizons. The inflation anchoring role of consolidation announcements is enhanced by the strength of a country's fiscal and monetary frameworks, and when fiscal and monetary policy work in tandem. In addition, we find that initial conditions matter—inflation expectation's response to consolidation announcements is larger in periods of high contemporaneous inflation. With these results in hand, we show that the effectiveness of fiscal consolidation in limiting realized inflation depends greatly on the response of inflation expectations to consolidation announcements. These results show that fiscal policy is crucial to anchor inflation expectations and a key element of a credible disinflationary process.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48331,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Money and Finance","volume":"151 ","pages":"Article 103247"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142745062","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}

It explores the mechanisms by which ESG performance influences debt risk, including diversification of funding sources, optimized capital utilization, and improved market supply–demand dynamics. The mitigating effect of ESG on debt risk is more pronounced in state-owned enterprises, large corporations, and corporations with robust internal controls, especially under conditions of low marketization and adverse macroeconomic circumstances. Moreover, in light of the global emphasis on climate risks, this study assesses their significant influence on debt default risk, particularly through the environmental aspect of ESG. Innovatively, this study incorporates dual climate risk scenarios to comprehensively analyze the interaction between ESG performance and debt default risk. Findings indicate that ESG performance significantly lowers debt risk in corporates facing higher internal climate challenges, while the effects on external supply chain climate risks are less evident. These insights contribute to the theoretical understanding of ESG and financial risk management and provide practical strategies for corporates pursuing sustainability in an unstable climatic environment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48331,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Money and Finance","volume":"151 ","pages":"Article 103248"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142745063","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}
