This study investigates the impact of China's Urban-Rural Resident Basic Medical Insurance (URRBMI) integration on intergenerational economic transfers within rural families. Exploiting its staggered rollout as a quasi-natural experiment, we employ a difference-in-differences design with the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Results show that the integration policy significantly increases downward transfers from parents to children, particularly among married, healthier parents with fewer children and no grandchild-care responsibilities in eastern and central regions. Conversely, we find no significant effect on upward transfers from children to parents. Mechanism analyses suggest that the policy enhances parents' willingness and capacity to support children by alleviating medical expenses and uncertainty about future health costs, rather than increasing labor participation. Overall, URRBMI integration shifts private family risk-sharing toward children without reducing upward transfers. The concentration of benefits among relatively advantaged parents indicates uneven distributional effects and limited protection for more vulnerable rural elders.

本研究探讨了城乡居民基本医疗保险一体化对农村家庭代际经济转移的影响。利用其交错推出作为准自然实验，我们采用了中国健康与退休纵向研究的差异设计。结果表明，一体化政策显著增加了从父母向子女的向下转移，特别是在东部和中部地区，已婚、健康、子女较少、没有孙辈照顾责任的父母中。相反，我们发现从孩子到父母的向上转移没有显著影响。机制分析表明，该政策通过减轻医疗费用和未来医疗成本的不确定性来提高父母抚养子女的意愿和能力，而不是提高劳动参与率。总体而言，URRBMI整合将私人家庭风险分担向儿童转移，而不减少向上转移。福利集中在相对有利的父母身上，表明分配效应不均衡，对较为脆弱的农村老年人的保护有限。

The establishment of circuit courts is an important measure to enhance judicial impartiality and independence, and thus improve the local judicial environment. This paper takes the establishment of circuit court as a quasi-natural experiment of judicial improvement, and empirically examines the impact of judicial improvement on trade credit financing by using a staggered difference-in-differences (DID) model with Chinese firms from 2009 to 2023 as the research sample. It is found that the trade credit financing of enterprises after the establishment of the circuit court increases significantly. The mechanism test indicates that improving local judicial efficiency, alleviating local protectionism and reducing corporate defaults are important channels through which the establishment of circuit courts promotes corporate trade credit financing. Heterogeneity tests indicate that the positive effect of circuit court establishment on trade credit financing is systematically stronger for a state-owned enterprises, firms without political connections, and those exhibiting higher gross profit margins, smaller size, or weaker pre-existing financing capacity. This paper provides empirical evidence that the legal environment improvement is conductive to the financial market development.

设立巡回法院是增强司法公正独立、改善地方司法环境的重要举措。本文将设立巡回法院作为司法改进的准自然实验，以2009 - 2023年中国企业为研究样本，采用交错差中差（DID）模型实证检验司法改进对贸易信贷融资的影响。研究发现，巡回法院成立后，企业的贸易信用融资明显增加。机制检验表明，提高地方司法效率、缓解地方保护主义、减少企业违约是设立巡回法院促进企业贸易信用融资的重要渠道。异质性检验表明，对于国有企业、没有政治关系的企业、毛利率较高、规模较小或原有融资能力较弱的企业，设立巡回法院对贸易信贷融资的积极影响系统性更强。本文提供了法律环境改善有利于金融市场发展的实证证据。

Recently, studies have emphasized the consumption amenities of cities, which are as important as city morphology. This study provides empirical evidence that addresses questions regarding the impact of city shape on consumption in China. This study uses night-light data to quantify the compactness of city shapes of Chinese cities. Four indices of city shape were calculated to reflect the different morphological properties of each city. IVs are constructed to mitigate endogeneity problems derived from time-varying historical features and non-time-varying geographical characteristics. The results indicate that higher compactness induces higher consumption by increasing intra-city travel frequency and disposable income. Transforming the samples and empirical equations did not affect the robustness of the results. Heterogeneity exists among households, with high-income households and households with young heads being less sensitive to changes in city-shape compactness. City shape does not affect marginal propensity to consume. This study emphasizes the importance of maintaining a compact city shape, and policies improving the intra-city transportation infrastructure can alleviate the negative consumption impact of non-compact city shapes.

近年来，对城市消费便利设施的研究越来越受到重视，认为城市消费便利设施与城市形态一样重要。本研究为解决中国城市形态对消费的影响问题提供了实证证据。本研究使用夜间灯光数据来量化中国城市形状的紧凑性。计算了城市形态的四个指标，以反映每个城市不同的形态特征。构建虚拟货币是为了缓解时变历史特征和非时变地理特征带来的内生性问题。研究结果表明，紧凑度越高，城市内部出行频率越高，居民可支配收入越高，消费水平越高。变换样本和经验方程不影响结果的稳健性。家庭之间存在异质性，高收入家庭和年轻户主家庭对城市形状紧凑度的变化不太敏感。城市形态不影响边际消费倾向。本研究强调了保持紧凑型城市形态的重要性，改善城市内部交通基础设施的政策可以缓解非紧凑型城市形态对消费的负面影响。

With intensifying global competition and rapid technological advancement, breakthrough innovation has become a critical avenue for firms to build sustainable competitive advantages. Based on a resource-based view, we provide a theoretical foundation to explain that high-quality basic research plays a fundamental role to achieve firms’ breakthrough innovation. By using Chinese dataset, we find that firms with strong basic research capabilities can boost their breakthrough innovation. Further analyses show that basic research facilitates breakthrough innovation through three mechanisms: enhancing knowledge diversity, increasing access to government R&D subsidies, and strengthening R&D collaboration. Heterogeneity analyses reveal that the effect of basic research is more pronounced for firms with higher absorptive capacity, larger firm size, and in technology-intensive sectors. Moreover, the positive impact of basic research on breakthrough innovation is stronger in more competitive industries. These findings have important implications for understanding the role of corporate basic research in fostering breakthrough innovation, particularly under increasing external technological constraints.

随着全球竞争的加剧和技术的快速进步，突破性创新已成为企业建立可持续竞争优势的重要途径。基于资源基础的观点，我们提供了一个理论基础来解释高质量的基础研究对企业实现突破性创新的基础性作用。利用中国数据，我们发现基础研究能力强的企业能够促进其突破性创新。进一步分析表明，基础研究通过提高知识多样性、增加获得政府研发补贴的机会和加强研发合作三种机制促进突破性创新。异质性分析表明，基础研究对吸收能力高、企业规模大、技术密集型企业的影响更为显著。此外，基础研究对突破性创新的积极影响在竞争力越强的行业中越明显。这些发现对于理解企业基础研究在促进突破性创新中的作用具有重要意义，特别是在外部技术约束日益增加的情况下。

Does the housing provident fund crowd out the households’ non-housing consumption? Evidence from Chinese micro data 住房公积金是否挤占了家庭的非住房消费？来自中国微观数据的证据

This study investigates the causal effect of mandatory housing provident fund (HPF) contributions on non-housing consumption patterns among urban Chinese households. Leveraging cross-sectional data from the 2017 China Household Finance Survey (CHFS), we employ instrumental variable estimation to address endogeneity arising from reverse causality and omitted variable bias. Results reveal a statistically significant negative association between HPF contributions and discretionary spending: An RMB 1 increase in per capita HPF outlays corresponds to an RMB 0.843 decline in non-housing consumption. Strikingly, this crowd-out effect intensifies among households that refrain from utilizing HPF for residential purposes—exhibiting a marginal propensity to consume reduction of RMB 1.492 per yuan contributed. Heterogeneity analyses further demonstrate that low-income families, who exhibit lower HPF withdrawal probabilities, bear the inhibitory effect: Their non-housing expenditures decrease more relative to higher-income counterparts under equivalent contribution levels. In both the theoretical and empirical models, the results suggest that whether a household has an HPF does matter, but it is more important for the household to take advantage of its lending capacity to mitigate liquidity constraints, rather than merely participate in it.

本研究探讨了强制性住房公积金缴存对中国城镇居民非住房消费模式的因果影响。利用2017年中国家庭金融调查（CHFS）的横截面数据，我们采用工具变量估计来解决由反向因果关系和忽略变量偏差引起的内生性问题。研究结果显示，人均住房公积金支出每增加1元，非住房消费就会减少0.843元。引人注目的是，这种挤出效应在那些不将HPF用于居住目的的家庭中加剧——表现出每贡献1元人民币的边际消费倾向减少1.492元。异质性分析进一步表明，在同等缴费水平下，低收入家庭的非住房支出比高收入家庭减少得更多，而低收入家庭的HPF提取概率较低。在理论和实证模型中，结果都表明，家庭是否拥有高流动性基金确实很重要，但更重要的是家庭利用其贷款能力来缓解流动性约束，而不仅仅是参与其中。

The participation of foreign-invested enterprises in the formulation of national standards is taken as an opportunity to identify standards opening-up, and the impact of standards opening-up on local firms' innovation is examined. It is found that standards opening-up promotes local firms' innovation, works through collaboration between Chinese and foreign firms, market competition, and information transmission mechanism, and influences upstream and downstream innovation along the industrial chain. In addition, standards opening-up promotes firms’ product upgrading and exporting, standards harmonization, and foreign investment stabilization. These findings explain the significance of steady expansion of institutional opening-up.

以外商投资企业参与国家标准制定为契机，识别标准开放，考察标准开放对本土企业创新的影响。研究发现，标准开放促进了本土企业的创新，通过中外企业合作、市场竞争和信息传递机制发挥作用，并对产业链上下游创新产生影响。此外，标准开放促进了企业产品升级和出口，促进了标准的协调和外商投资的稳定。这些发现说明了稳步扩大制度开放的重要意义。

Unlike previous studies examining how monopoly regulation policies affect enterprise behavior, this study uses the implementation of China's Fair Competition Review System as a quasi-natural experiment. This study uses data from non-financial listed enterprises and employs a difference-in-differences model to explore the impact and mechanism of administrative monopoly regulation on employee wages. The results show that administrative monopoly regulation can reduce average employee wages in administrative monopoly enterprises. This negative effect is more pronounced in firms with lower financing constraints and higher operating profits and in provinces with stronger government intervention. The economic mechanism test results indicate that reducing economic rent, curbing the labor scale, and increasing financing constraints are important mechanisms through which administrative monopoly regulation curbs excessively high compensation in these enterprises. Finally, this study finds that administrative monopoly regulation helps narrow the internal compensation gap of administrative monopoly enterprises.

与以往研究垄断监管政策如何影响企业行为不同，本研究将中国公平竞争审查制度的实施作为准自然实验。本研究采用非金融类上市企业数据，采用差异中差异模型，探讨行政垄断规制对员工工资的影响及机制。研究结果表明，行政垄断规制会降低行政垄断企业职工平均工资。在融资约束较低、营业利润较高的企业和政府干预力度较大的省份，这种负面影响更为明显。经济机制检验结果表明，降低经济租金、抑制劳动力规模、增加融资约束是行政垄断规制抑制中小企业薪酬过高的重要机制。最后，本研究发现行政垄断规制有助于缩小行政垄断企业的内部薪酬差距。

Impact of maternity leave policy reform on enterprise labor employment: Evidence from China matched employer-employee longitudinal survey data 产假政策改革对企业劳动力就业的影响：来自中国匹配雇主-雇员纵向调查数据的证据

IF 2.7 Q2 ECONOMICS

This study uses the China Matched Employer-Employee Longitudinal Survey data to evaluate the impact of maternity leave reform on enterprise labor employment. The results show that the reform does not affect overall labor employment but reduces the proportion of female employees, increasing labor costs for firms with female employees who have taken maternity leave. Mechanism analysis indicates that the reform leads to gender discrimination and cost-shifting effects, negatively impacting the formal employment, promotion, and wages of women of childbearing age, while increasing substitute labor costs for firms. Explicitly specifying that maternity leave allowances be paid by the maternity insurance fund helps alleviate these adverse effects.

本研究使用中国匹配雇主-雇员纵向调查数据来评估产假改革对企业劳动力就业的影响。结果表明，改革对整体劳动就业没有影响，但降低了女性员工的比例，增加了女性员工休产假的企业的劳动力成本。机制分析表明，改革导致性别歧视和成本转移效应，对育龄妇女的正式就业、晋升和工资产生负面影响，同时增加了企业的替代劳动力成本。明确规定产假津贴由生育保险基金支付，有助于减轻这些不利影响。

Exploiting the quasi-natural experiment of the U.S.-China trade friction, we empirically examine the impact of uncertainty shocks on Chinese firms' overseas patent applications and transnational innovation collaboration. We find that uncertainty shocks suppress Chinese firms’ overseas innovation performance, resulting in a disruption effect on innovation collaboration with the U.S., but a diversion effect on collaborations with other countries, which is particularly evident in U.S. innovation partners, Europe, Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN), Japan, and South Korea. Heterogeneity analysis shows that these shocks disproportionately affect high-tech industries, industries with strong influence, and those with close U.S.-China innovation linkages.

利用中美贸易摩擦的准自然实验，实证研究了不确定性冲击对中国企业海外专利申请和跨国创新合作的影响。研究发现，不确定性冲击抑制了中国企业的海外创新绩效，对与美国的创新合作产生了干扰效应，但对与其他国家的创新合作产生了转移效应，这在美国创新伙伴、欧洲、东盟、日本和韩国尤为明显。异质性分析表明，这些冲击对高科技产业、具有强大影响力的产业以及与中美创新联系密切的产业的影响不成比例。

Using comprehensive firm-level databases, we study the micro-basis of different trends in aggregate and individual labor shares in China's manufacturing sector during 1998–2016. We find that (1) redistributing value added towards the bottom of labor share distribution causes the decline of aggregate labor share; (2) the redistribution effect is driven by firms gradually increasing market share and reducing labor share; and (3) state-owned enterprises contribute significantly to the changes in aggregate labor share. The analysis of this paper enhances the understanding of the changes in China's labor share from the perspective of dynamic change of micro-firms.

本文利用企业层面的综合数据库，研究了1998-2016年中国制造业总劳动份额和个体劳动份额不同趋势的微观基础。研究发现：(1)增加价值向劳动份额分配底部再分配导致总劳动份额下降；(2)再分配效应是由企业逐渐提高市场份额和降低劳动力份额驱动的；(3)国有企业对总劳动份额的变化贡献显著。本文的分析有助于我们从微观企业动态变化的视角来理解中国劳动收入占比的变化。
