报告内容摘要

External governance mechanisms can affect corporate behaviors. We examine the postings of discredit by the Supreme Court of China on the financing, investment, growth and corporate valuation of Chinese listed firms. We employ a difference-in-difference method and find that postings of discredit are negatively associated with the growth rate of bank loans. This effect is more pronounced for small and private firms, in particular for those private firms without political connection. In addition, this effect is more pronounced for firms in regions with better legal environment and lower costs of contract enforcement. Firms receiving higher investor attention suffer more severely from discredit postings. Also, firms with poor corporate governance suffer more severely from discredit postings.This paper provides supporting evidence for the role of external governance mechanism in disciplining corporate behavior in a context of poorly developed financial and legal system as China.
