摘要

本研究通过关注银行信贷中的性别差距，探讨女性地方官员是否以及如何使女性领导的企业受益。以 2007 年至 2021 年的中国上市公司为样本，我们发现女性地方官员可以促进女性领导的企业获得银行信贷，尤其是长期贷款。机制分析表明，女性官员可以减少性别偏见的影响，为女性领导的企业提供更多的政策支持，从而帮助缩小银行信贷中的性别差距。

Women helping women? Female local official and gender gap in bank credit

This study examines whether and how female local officials benefit female-led firms by focusing on the gender gap in bank credit. Using a sample of Chinese listed companies from 2007 to 2021, we find that female local officials can facilitate access to bank credit for female-led firms, particularly for long-term loans. Mechanism analysis reveals that female officials can reduce the impact of gender bias and provide greater policy support for female-led firms, thereby helping to narrow the gender gap in bank credit.
