摘要
绿色信贷政策(GCP)在环境保护和金融监管方面发挥着双重作用。其在推动企业去杠杆方面的有效性对加快发展转型具有重要意义。本文采用差分法研究了 2007-2021 年间《绿色信贷指引》对中国 A 股上市公司去杠杆的影响。结果表明,绿色信贷指引对企业去杠杆具有推动作用。机理检验表明,企业杠杆率可以通过增加融资约束和降低财务困境风险来降低。研究结果为促进经济高质量发展提供了政策启示。
Green credit policy and corporate deleveraging: Evidence from China
Green Credit Policy (GCP) plays a dual role in environmental protection and financial regulation. Its effectiveness in driving enterprises to deleverage is of great significance in accelerating the development transition. This paper uses the difference-in-differences method to investigate the impact of the Green Credit Guidelines (GCG) on corporate deleveraging in Chinese A-share listed companies between 2007 and 2021. The results show that GCP has a driving effect on enterprise deleveraging. The mechanism tests indicate that corporate leverage ratio can be reduced by increasing financing constraints and reducing the financial distress risk. The findings offer policy implications for promoting high-quality economic development.
