摘要

在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间，气候风险影响银行的贷款行为。我们的研究使用日本的数据表明，银行在危机开始和随后的一年减少了对高二氧化碳强度公司的贷款。然而，之前大举投资于这些公司的银行增加了贷款，尤其是对销售额大幅下降的公司。我们的研究结果还表明，银行对高二氧化碳强度企业的贷款因其资本缓冲而异。这些发现甚至在考虑僵尸贷款和银行关系时也成立，表明银行在流动性冲击期间重新分配资金时考虑了气候风险。

Firms’ climate risks and bank lending: Evidence from the COVID-19 crisis

Climate risks influence banks' lending behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our study uses Japanese data to show that banks reduced lending to high CO2 intensity firms at the start of the crisis and the following year. However, banks that previously invested heavily in these firms increased their lending, especially to firms with significant declines in sales. Our results also reveal that banks' lending to high CO2 intensity firms varies according to their capital buffers. These findings hold even when considering zombie lending and bank relationships, indicating that banks took climate risks into account when reallocating funds during a liquidity shock.
