Policy discontinuity and the efficiency of environmental investment: Evidence from China
政策不连续性与环保投资效率——来自中国的证据
论文摘要
Policy discontinuities arising from local official turnover can exert significant influence on ecological and environmental governance, thereby affecting firms’ environmental investment behavior. The results show that policy discontinuities induced by official turnover lead to a decline in the efficiency of corporate environmental investment. However, such negative effects are mitigated when newly appointed officials are promoted locally or share a hometown origin with provincial-level leaders. Further analysis reveals that the adverse impact of official turnover on environmental investment efficiency is more pronounced in private firms, heavily polluting firms, and firms with lower holdings by long-term institutional investors.
官员变更导致的政策不连续性会对生态环境建设产生重要影响,从而影响当地企业的正常环保投资活动。研究发现:官员变更引致的政策不连续会导致企业环保投资效率损失。当新任官员为本地升迁或新任官员与省级官员为同乡关系时能够降低政策不连续性,从而缓解当地企业环保投资效率损失。进一步讨论发现,官员变更产生的政策不连续在民营企业、重污染企业以及长期机构投资者持股水平较低的企业会导致环保投资效率损失加剧。
