Abstract:
As a "testing ground" for China's institutional openness in the new era, whether the construction of Pilot Free Trade Zones (FTZs) can provide assistance for the cultivation of new quality productive forces and play a pioneering and demonstrative role in the process is the focus of attention of the policy circles and academics at present. Based on the quasi-natural experiment of the establishment of FTZ, this paper constructs a time-varying DID model to empirically test the effect and mechanism of institutional openness on the new quality productive forces. It is found that institutional openness can significantly promote the development of new quality productive forces, which is manifested in the fact that the establishment of FTZ increases the development level of new quality productivity in the region by about 7.490% on average. The results of the mechanism test show that the institutional openness accelerates the market system change in the provincial areas, brings the effect of improving the business environment, and thus is conducive to promoting the emergence of new quality productive forces. Heterogeneity analysis shows that the promotion effect of institutional openness on new quality productive forces varies according to the batch of its establishment and the strength of clan culture in the region where it is located, and the development-promoting effect of the first two batches of FTZs and the FTZs in the regions with weaker informal systems is more obvious in comparison. Further analysis reveals that institutional openness has significant spatial spillover effect and has a radiation-driven effect on the development of new quality productive forces in neighboring provinces; in addition, the higher the level of institutional innovation in FTZs, the stronger the support of legal authorization, resulting in the stronger the effects of industrial agglomeration and attraction of high-end factor mobility, as well as the more pronounced is the promotion effect on new quality productive forces. The findings of this paper have important policy implications for further optimizing and improving the construction of FTZs in order to release the dividends of institutional openness, and then boost China's productivity leap.

Abstract:
In the digital age, the way of customer experience has changed greatly. To attract customers by improving customer experience has become the key to enhance competitiveness of enterprises. Most of the existing studies focus on the net effect of a single factor on customer experience, but ignore the configuration effect of multiple factors on customer experience. This paper uses the mixed method of NCA and fsQCA to investigate the multiple paths of customer pragmatic experience and hedonic experience caused by the combination of multiple factors such as digitization (digital technology level and digital application scope), business model (novelty and efficiency) and customer journey (thematic coherence, consistency, and scene sensitivity). The empirical analysis based on 258 valid questionnaires found that simply pursuing digitalization does not necessarily lead to positive customer experience; the high novelty and efficiency of the business model contribute to the positive customer experience, while the negative customer experience is easily induced. The combination of "one high and one low" condition of thematic coherence and scene sensitivity can also lead to positive customer experience. Positive pragmatic experience and positive hedonic experience can occur simultaneously. These conclusions have certain theoretical and practical significance for the correct understanding of the breadth and depth of digitalization on the differentiated impact of customer experience, scientific and effective design of customer journey and continuous optimization of business models.

[Abstract](39) [FullText HTML](24) [PDF 1282KB](8)
Abstract:
In the era of digital economy, big data technology has transformed corporate management models and profoundly influenced commercial credit decision-making. Based on the annual reports of China's A-share listed companies spanning from 2009 to 2021, this paper analyzes a dataset comprising an indicator system for corporate big data analytics capability through text analysis methods, investigating how big data analytics capability affects commercial credit provision. The results show that big data analytics capability significantly improves corporate commercial credit provision through incentivizing R&D innovation, reducing supply chain concentration, and alleviating financing constraints, the impact exhibiting heterogeneity on the nature of property rights, lifecycle stage, earnings management practices, and the degree of information disclosure. This study contributes to the empirical literature by elucidating how listed companies can effectively allocate supply chain funds through the lens of corporate big data analytics capability, thereby providing theoretical insights for the high-quality collaborative development of supply chain finance in the digital economy era.
The Impact of Equity Pledge on the Control Rights and Business Performance of Private Enterprises in the Context of Stock Market Downturn
FENG Ke, LIU Dan
2024, 39(5): 55-71.  
[Abstract](37) [FullText HTML](19) [PDF 1417KB](2)
Abstract:
With the continuous expansion of equity pledge scale, the risk of stock market in China continued to increase, which resulted in the equity pledge crisis in 2018. The stock price crash in 2018 was used as an exogenous quasi natural experiment, and a Logit-DID model was applied to investigate the impact of equity pledge accompanied by the stock market downturn on the control rights and business performance of private enterprises. It is found that when the stock price decreases, major shareholders without equity pledge would increase their holdings, thereby the likelihood of losing control rights reduced. However, if a company had equity pledge and reached a certain proportion, a decrease in stock price would increase the likelihood of losing control rights. The transfer of corporate control rights might be accompanied by future business performance losses. Besides, the "Relief" policy, accompanied by the transformation of a private enterprise's actual controller into state-owned capital, would result in more significant losses in corporate performance with managerial agency problem as mechanism. This conclusion has important implications for optimizing capital market regulatory enforcement, maintaining asset price stability, and protecting investors and listed companies.

[Abstract](37) [FullText HTML](17) [PDF 1217KB](10)
Abstract:
Data assets, as new type of production factor, present a core issue for improving corporate income distribution systems in the context of digital transformation. This study utilizes data from A-share listed companies from 2007 to 2022 to analyze the impact and mechanisms of data assets on labor income share. The findings indicate that data assets enhance labor income share, which remains valid after a series of robustness tests. Mechanism tests reveal that data assets promote labor income share through dual pathways: suppressing capital deepening and increasing employee wage levels. Further analysis shows that data assets significantly boost total operating revenue, capital income, and labor income, helping companies grow stronger; data assets displace capital income share, reflecting a labor-oriented income distribution; data assets do not significantly affect labor productivity; the specific effects of data assets on labor income share include job creation, high-salary talent acquisition, and skill enhancement. Heterogeneity tests indicate that the promotion effect of data assets on labor income share is more pronounced in labor-intensive, high-tech, and non-state-owned enterprises. This research provides empirical evidence for governments and enterprises to improve income distribution systems and achieve the goal of common prosperity.

[Abstract](53) [FullText HTML](15) [PDF 1209KB](11)
Abstract:
Data assets have become an important driving force for enterprises to achieve innovative development in an uncertain environment. Based on the perspective of bond financing cost analysis of the financing function and mechanism of data assets, it is found that data asset disclosure can significantly reduce bond financing cost mainly through the information incremental effect, reputation effect and resource dependence effect. The heterogeneity analysis shows that for enterprises with low financing constraint degree, high corporate governance level, low economic policy uncertainty degree, low industry competition degree and good digital infrastructure environment, the reduction of bond financing cost by data asset disclosure is more significant. This paper enriches the information set for enterprise management decision-making from the perspective of data assets and provides a way for the management to evaluate the internal and external environmental risks of the enterprise and formulate scientific and reasonable financing strategies.

2024, 39(5): 102-116.  
[Abstract](33) [FullText HTML](21) [PDF 1284KB](6)
Abstract:
Promotion of consumption among rural residents is an urgent requirement for expanding domestic demand and promoting high-quality economic development. This paper empirically analyzes the impact of medical insurance on rural residents' consumption based on the four-phase panel data of CHARLS. It is found that medical insurance significantly increases non-medical consumption among rural residents, with the main increase being in subsistence consumption; health shocks play a significant moderating role, leading to a notable decrease of 43.2% in non-medical consumption among rural residents; the consumption effect of medical insurance is not significant in low-income groups, and there is a phenomenon of "The more reimbursements one gets, the less willing of consumption" among hospitalized patients. Mechanism test indicates that because medical insurance does not significantly reduce out-of-pocket expenses or decrease the burden of out-of-pocket payments while promoting the utilization of medical services, the burden-reducing effect of medical insurance is not significant. The mediating effect test based on sense of security and happiness is highly significant, indicating that psychological effect is still the key mechanism for medical insurance to promote the consumption of rural residents. The article proposes that fairness should be the primary value orientation of medical insurance system reform. In the case of limited space for the improvement of the level of security, it is proposed to vigorously control the unreasonable growth of medical expenses to improve the efficiency of the use of funds, and deepen the reform of the medical and health system focusing on hierarchical diagnosis and treatment.

[Abstract](28) [FullText HTML](32) [PDF 1316KB](28)
Abstract:
Entrepreneurship is an important driver of economic growth, and credit is the cornerstone of the market economy. Taking the construction of the social credit system as a quasi-natural experiment, and using a sample of 284 cities from 2009 to 2019, this paper constructs a staggered difference-in-difference model to examine the entrepreneurial effects and mechanisms of social credit system construction. It is found that the construction of the social credit system significantly enhances regional entrepreneurial activity. The results of the mechanism test show that social credit system construction promotes entrepreneurship by increasing financial support, promoting regional talent agglomeration, and improving regional innovation levels. The heterogeneity analysis shows that the entrepreneurial effects of social credit system construction are more pronounced in regions with lower market integration and higher levels of rule of law; in terms of industry types, the effects are particularly pronounced in the service sector, especially in consumption-oriented services. This paper examines the role of social credit in promoting regional entrepreneurship from the perspective of informal institutions, providing important theoretical and empirical insights into cultivating China's distinctive financial culture and promoting the realization of financial services for the real economy.

摘要:
制造业与生产性服务业合理的空间协同分布体系是企业创新发展的关键所在,但目前关于生产性服务业与制造业协同集聚如何影响企业创新的研究还相对匮乏。鉴于此,基于产业空间协同分布视角,利用中国工业企业微观数据与城市面板的匹配数据,实证检验生产性服务业与制造业协同集聚对制造业企业技术创新的影响效应及其作用机制。结果发现:生产性服务业与制造业协同集聚显著促进了企业的技术创新,并且这一作用依赖于企业所有制类型、要素密集度、沟通密集度、城市规模等异质性因素。进一步研究表明,生产性服务业与制造业协同集聚主要通过作用于企业的交易成本结构、进入与退出决策行为及研发创新激励来影响企业的技术创新活动。

摘要:
员工持股计划作为企业内部的一项集体激励政策,在优化企业产权配置的同时亦对企业融资能力产生重要影响。基于2011—2018年A股上市公司样本,探究员工持股计划对企业融资约束的影响及作用机制,研究发现,员工持股计划通过降低外部融资成本来缓解企业的融资约束状况,这种缓解作用对东部地区的企业以及民营企业更为显著;员工持股计划通过增强员工身份认同、缓解员工层面代理问题等途径来提升企业内部控制质量,内部控制质量在员工持股计划与融资约束作用之间起到部分中介作用;由于员工之间的“监督效应”及员工持股计划的“公告效应”,员工持股计划在提升内部控制质量方面不存在“搭便车”行为,在缓解融资约束方面存在“1/N”效应。本研究结论为新时期推进员工持股深化改革、提升本土企业内部竞争力提供了参考。

摘要:
相较于美国式面向全体员工的退休储蓄型计划,中国式员工持股计划面向关键少数员工,员工大多自行出资,持股期更加灵活。基于2011—2017年A股上市公司数据,研究员工持股计划与企业创新产出数量与质量之间的关系;并进一步依据员工持股计划的契约特征将其分为治理型、激励型与绑定型三类,研究不同路径取向下的员工持股计划对企业创新的影响差异。结果表明:相对于治理型计划,激励型计划与绑定型计划均能提升企业的创新产出,且绑定型计划的作用更加显著;影响机制检验发现,激励型计划促进了员工在创新活动中的努力投入,绑定型计划降低了员工流失率并提升了高管的风险承担水平。本研究证实员工持股计划的实施符合利益协同观而非市值管理观,中国式员工持股计划具有创新促进效应。
