摘要/Abstract
本文以2008-2018年沪深A股上市公司为样本,利用Baker、Bloom和Davis(2013)开发的“中国经济政策不确定性指数”探究了会计信息质量在经济政策不确定性与企业融资约束的关系中发挥的作用。实证结果表明,良好的会计信息质量可有效缓解经济政策不确定性对企业融资约束的负面作用。通过对样本进行细分,我们还观察到这种调节作用在非国有企业样本以及市场化程度更高的地区样本中更加显著。本文丰富了经济政策不确定性和公司融资相关的文献,同时进一步印证了良好的会计信息质量在公司治理中的重要性。
In order to explore the impact of economic policy uncertainty on corporate financing constraints, this paper takes A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchange from 2008 to 2018 as samples, and uses the "China Economic Policy Uncertainty Index" to explore the role of accounting information quality in the relationship between economic policy uncertainty and corporate financing constraints.The empirical results show that good accounting information quality can effectively alleviate the negative effects of economic policy uncertainty on corporate financing constraints.By subdivision of the sample, we also observe that this moderating effect is more significant in the sample of non-state-owned enterprises, enterprises with weak risk tolerance and regions with higher degree of marketization.This paper enriches the literature related to economic policy uncertainty and corporate financing, and further confirms the importance of good accounting information quality in corporate governance.
