This study investigates how tax authority independence affects corporate earnings management. We employ a difference-in-differences approach and find that increased tax authority independence significantly reduces earnings management, particularly for firms engaging in downward earnings management. Additionally, we observe that this negative correlation is influenced by factors such as ownership structure, political connections, audit quality, and legal environment. Furthermore, we demonstrate that enhanced tax enforcement and corporate governance serve as channels through which the independence of tax authorities mitigates earnings manipulation.
本研究探讨税务机关独立性对企业盈余管理的影响。我们采用了差异中的差异方法,发现税务机关独立性的提高显著减少了盈余管理,特别是对于从事向下盈余管理的公司。此外,我们观察到这种负相关关系受到股权结构、政治关系、审计质量和法律环境等因素的影响。此外,我们还证明,加强税务执法和公司治理是税务机关独立性减轻盈余操纵的渠道。

The Limited Partnership Agreement (LPA) enables flexible ownership structures for actual controllers. This study examines the impact of the LPA structure on labor investment efficiency among Chinese listed firms from 2014 to 2021. We find that firms with LPA structure exhibit 21.53% higher inefficient labor investment compared to those without LPA structure, with the effect driven by principal-agent conflicts and information asymmetry. More specifically, we find that the impact of the LPA structure on labor investment efficiency is manifested through staffing imbalances. In addition, the negative effect is more pronounced among firms with weaker corporate governance, higher labor adjustment costs, and higher human capital intensity. Our results also reveal that the LPA structure increases the stickiness of labor costs. Overall, the findings indicate the governance risks of partnership-based ownership and provide practical guidance for optimizing labor investment through ownership design.
有限合伙协议(LPA)为实际控制人提供灵活的所有权结构。本研究考察了2014 - 2021年LPA结构对中国上市公司劳动投资效率的影响。研究发现,在委托代理冲突和信息不对称的驱动下,具有LPA结构的企业的低效劳动投资比不具有LPA结构的企业高21.53%。更具体地说,我们发现LPA结构对劳动投资效率的影响表现为人员配置失衡。此外,在公司治理较弱、劳动力调整成本较高、人力资本强度较高的企业中,这种负面影响更为明显。研究结果还表明,LPA结构增加了劳动力成本的粘性。总体而言,研究结果揭示了合伙制股权的治理风险,并为通过股权设计优化劳动力投资提供了实践指导。

Reexamining the effects of FinTech on household consumption: A perspective on monopoly alleviation 重新审视金融科技对家庭消费的影响:一个缓解垄断的视角
IF 4.6 2区 经济学 Q1 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-12-22 DOI: 10.1016/j.ememar.2025.101430

This paper reexamines how FinTech affects household consumption from the novel perspective of monopoly alleviation. Employing an extended Hotelling model, we demonstrate that FinTech reduces transportation costs, facilitating household switching between firms. This effect lowers price premiums at the Nash equilibrium, thereby boosting consumption quantities. The resulting improvements in utility, reduction in inequality, and changes in consumption structure contribute to increased household welfare. Utilizing simulations and calibrations based on real data, we further explore the policy implications. Overall, our paper emphasizes the positive effect of FinTech on household welfare, which differs from previous literature primarily focused on increased consumption expenditure.
本文从缓解垄断的新视角重新审视金融科技对居民消费的影响。采用扩展的Hotelling模型,我们证明了金融科技降低了运输成本,促进了家庭在公司之间的转换。这种效应降低了纳什均衡下的价格溢价,从而提高了消费数量。由此产生的效用的改善、不平等的减少和消费结构的变化有助于增加家庭福利。利用基于真实数据的模拟和校准,我们进一步探讨了政策含义。总体而言,我们的论文强调金融科技对家庭福利的积极影响,这与以往文献主要关注消费支出的增加不同。

Reap what you sow: Corporate political activities and the external governance environment 种瓜得瓜,种豆得豆:公司政治活动和外部治理环境

This study analyzes the impact of the corporate political activities (CPAs) of large listed enterprises on the external governance environment (EGE) in emerging markets. This article argues that in the context of China, the entry of listed private manufacturing enterprises into the real estate industry, which depends heavily on land allocated by local governments, increases governmental interference in the economy and weakens the EGE. In particular, when firms utilize political connections, the negative effect is exacerbated, whereas a stronger innovation focus mitigates this impact. A multimodel empirical analysis of panel data from 2003 to 2019 confirms our hypotheses.
本研究分析了新兴市场大型上市企业的公司政治活动对外部治理环境(EGE)的影响。本文认为,在中国的背景下,民营制造业上市企业进入严重依赖地方政府划拨土地的房地产业,增加了政府对经济的干预,削弱了EGE。特别是,当企业利用政治关系时,负面影响会加剧,而更强的创新焦点则会减轻这种影响。对2003年至2019年面板数据的多模型实证分析证实了我们的假设。

Macroprudential policy and bank systemic risk: Does inflation targeting matter? 宏观审慎政策与银行系统性风险:通胀目标制重要吗?

This paper examines whether inflation targeting (IT) enhances the effectiveness of macroprudential policies in reducing banks’ contribution to systemic risk measured by SRISK. Using bank-level data for 47 countries, our regime-dependent panel regressions suggest that tools such as DSTI limits, the CCyB, conservation buffers, and leverage limits are relatively more effective under IT. Loan restrictions appear less effective, while loan-to-value (LTV) caps show impact only in post-GFC samples. Liquidity and reserve requirements reduce SRISK under IT in higher-frequency estimations. Our findings lend credence to the view that IT strengthens the role of macroprudential policy in mitigating financial stability risks.
本文考察了通货膨胀目标制(IT)是否增强了宏观审慎政策在降低银行对SRISK衡量的系统性风险的贡献方面的有效性。利用47个国家的银行层面数据,我们的制度相关面板回归表明,DSTI限制、CCyB、保护缓冲和杠杆限制等工具在IT下相对更有效。贷款限制似乎不太有效,而贷款对价值(LTV)上限仅在全球金融危机后的样本中显示出影响。在更高频率的估计中,流动性和准备金要求降低了IT下的SRISK。我们的研究结果为信息技术增强宏观审慎政策在缓解金融稳定风险方面的作用的观点提供了证据。

Contagion risk prediction with Chart Graph Convolutional Network: Evidence from Chinese stock market 基于图卷积网络的传染风险预测:来自中国股市的证据
IF 4.6 2区 经济学 Q1 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-12-10 DOI: 10.1016/j.ememar.2025.101426

Contagion risk has garnered widespread attention with the major occurrence of financial crises. However, existing literature has mainly focused on the characteristics analysis of risk contagion, while ignoring the prediction of contagion risk. Therefore, considering the importance of time series charts, a framework for contagion risk prediction is proposed by comprehensively mining the features of technical charts and technical indicators. In detail, correlation and centrality of the financial network are extracted to specify the contagion risk. Then, time series charts are converted to graphs by the chart similarity, and each node in the graph is assigned with technical indicators. Finally, a Chart Graph Convolutional Network (Chart GCN) is used to extract the features in the graph and predict the contagion risk. Based on the 28 sectors of the Chinese stock market, we specify the contagion risk and verify its consistency with the occurrence of financial crisis. In addition, our model proves the effectiveness of mining time series chart features in stock market contagion risk prediction. These results are essential for risk management in the financial market.
随着金融危机的多次发生,传染风险受到了广泛关注。然而,现有文献主要侧重于风险传染的特征分析,而忽略了对传染风险的预测。因此,考虑到时间序列图的重要性,综合挖掘技术图和技术指标的特点,提出了传染风险预测的框架。详细地,提取金融网络的相关性和中心性来指定传染风险。然后,根据图表相似度将时间序列图表转换为图表,并为图表中的每个节点分配技术指标。最后,使用图图卷积网络(Chart GCN)提取图中的特征并预测传染风险。基于中国股票市场28个板块,我们对传染风险进行了界定,并验证了其与金融危机发生的一致性。此外,我们的模型证明了挖掘时间序列图特征在股市传染风险预测中的有效性。这些结果对金融市场的风险管理至关重要。

We find that heightened economic policy uncertainty (EPU) increases the likelihood of individual unethical behavior. Using a sample of 166 million adviser-month observations spanning two decades (2000−2020), we find a positive, symmetric, and long-lasting relationship between EPU and advisers' propensity for misconduct. The EPU-misconduct relationship is strengthened by several factors, including being a male advisor, having a history of misconduct, possessing longer working experience, working for smaller firms or firms where peers engage in misconduct, and deteriorating macroeconomic conditions. These results support the idea that increased temporal discounting under stress serves as the underlying channel for this observed relationship.
我们发现,经济政策不确定性(EPU)的增加增加了个人不道德行为的可能性。使用跨越二十年(2000 - 2020)的1.66亿个顾问月观察样本,我们发现EPU与顾问不当行为倾向之间存在积极、对称和持久的关系。epu与不端行为之间的关系被几个因素所加强,包括作为男性顾问,有不端行为的历史,拥有更长的工作经验,在较小的公司或同行从事不端行为的公司工作,以及不断恶化的宏观经济状况。这些结果支持这样一种观点,即压力下增加的时间折扣是这种观察到的关系的潜在渠道。

This study examines Polish households with variable-rate domestic currency mortgages during the 2022 - mid-2023 interest rate shock. Using a unique dataset and econometric modelling, it identifies financial-economic, socio-demographic, and attitudinal characteristics of households that experienced delayed instalment repayments. These difficulties were primarily associated with households' financial-economic features, particularly broader financial constraints and deteriorated living standards. A strong association with the Mortgage Service-to-Income (MStDI) ratio underscores its relevance as a key indicator of financial vulnerability among the analysed households under stress. The findings offer directions for further research and institutional reflection aimed at developing consumer protection policy.
本研究考察了波兰家庭在2022年至2023年中期利率冲击期间的可变利率本币抵押贷款。使用独特的数据集和计量经济模型,它确定了经历延迟分期付款的家庭的金融、经济、社会人口和态度特征。这些困难主要与家庭的财政-经济特征有关,特别是更广泛的财政限制和生活水平的恶化。与抵押贷款服务与收入(MStDI)比率的强烈关联强调了其作为分析压力下家庭财务脆弱性的关键指标的相关性。研究结果为进一步研究和制定消费者保护政策的制度反思提供了方向。

This study investigates peer effects in ESG practice by analyzing Chinese listed companies from 2009 to 2022. After incorporating the impact of ESG rating disagreement, we document the significant existence of peer effects of ESG practice. Mechanism analysis shows these effects are amplified by high information uncertainty and information transmission efficiency. Heterogeneity tests reveal stronger peer effects in non-state-owned, follower, and non-heavy-polluting firms. Additionally, we find peer effects of ESG practice is strongest for social activities and exhibit regional spillovers. Furthermore, this imitation is selective, as firms replicate positive ESG practice rather than controversies.
本研究以2009 - 2022年中国上市公司为研究对象,探讨了ESG实践中的同伴效应。在纳入ESG评级分歧的影响后,我们证明了ESG实践的同伴效应的显著存在。机制分析表明,高信息不确定性和信息传递效率放大了这些效应。异质性检验表明,非国有企业、追随者企业和非重污染企业的同伴效应更强。此外,我们发现ESG实践的同伴效应在社会活动中最强,并表现出区域溢出效应。此外,这种模仿是有选择性的,因为公司复制积极的ESG实践,而不是有争议的。

Information infrastructure, knowledge spillover, and technological innovation — Evidence from the internet penetration rates of emerging market 信息基础设施、知识溢出与技术创新——来自新兴市场互联网普及率的证据
IF 4.6 2区 经济学 Q1 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-12-20 DOI: 10.1016/j.ememar.2025.101432

Information infrastructure serves as a critical material foundation for industrial innovation, a role that has been amplified by widespread Internet penetration in the information age. This study examines the effect of information infrastructure, proxied by Internet penetration rates, on technological innovation in China over the period 2007–2022. We identify a significant positive causal relationship, whereby improved information infrastructure not only increases patent output but also enhances the quality of innovation. Our mechanism tests indicate that knowledge spillovers are a primary channel through which infrastructure fosters corporate innovation. The heterogeneity analysis suggests that the effect is significantly more pronounced in regions with stronger intellectual property rights and lower industrial concentration, with high-tech industries deriving the most significant advantage. We also find that information infrastructure promotes exploitative innovation, patent diversity, and technological proximity, but has no statistically significant effect on exploratory innovation. The study concludes with targeted policy implications for enhancing technological innovation among firms in developing countries.
信息基础设施是产业创新的重要物质基础,在信息时代,互联网的广泛普及进一步放大了这一作用。本研究考察了2007-2022年中国信息基础设施(以互联网普及率为代表)对技术创新的影响。我们发现了显著的正向因果关系,即改进的信息基础设施不仅增加了专利产出,而且提高了创新质量。我们的机制检验表明,知识溢出是基础设施促进企业创新的主要渠道。异质性分析表明,在知识产权水平越高、产业集中度越低的地区,这种效应更为显著,高新技术产业的优势最为显著。信息基础设施促进了剥削性创新、专利多样性和技术接近性,但对探索性创新没有显著影响。该研究最后提出了加强发展中国家企业技术创新的有针对性的政策含义。
