摘要:

Based on a manually-collected bank loan contract dataset of privately listed Chinese firms

from 2008 to 2016, we examine the effect of Chinas anti-corruption intensity on loan contracting. The findings suggest that, conditional on the political connection (total factor production) of a firm, the anti-corruption intensity in the province in which a firm is located contributes to less (more) favorable loan contracting terms. Additional analysis shows that the effect of anti-corruption intensity on loan contracting is stronger for firms with higher financing constraints and weaker external legal environments. We further find that higher anti-corruption intensity is related to lower credit growth at the macro-level. We highlight the positive role of the anti-corruption intensity in improving resource allocation efficiency at the cost of credit expansion at the macro-level.
