论文题目：
- 樊海潮：Trade Uncertainty and Firm Pollution
- 丁浩员：Equilibrium Consequences of Corruption on Firms: Evidence from China’s Anti-Corruption Campaign
论文摘要:
- 樊海潮：How does a reduction in trade policy uncertainty affect firms’ pollution behavior? Guided by a simple model, we show that the answer to this question depends on whether an emission cap exists. We find that the reduced uncertainty increases firm output by comparable magnitudes across the regions, but they reduce firm SO2 emission intensity and firm total SO2 emissions only in regions with emission caps. The decline in SO2 emissions is caused by reduced use of fossil fuel and more abatement equipment. We also find that the reduced uncertainty improves firms’ productivity more when emission caps exist.
- 丁浩员：We use China's recent anti-corruption campaign as a natural experiment to examine the (market expected) equilibrium consequences of (anti-)corruption. We argue that the announcement of inspections of provincial governments by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) on May 17, 2013 represents a significant departure of past norms of anti-corruption campaigns, and thus serves a rare empirical opportunity to examine the equilibrium effects of anti-corruption campaigns for firms. We first present a conceptual framework to illustrate the channels through which anti-corruption actions can influence firms. Using an event study approach and May 17, 2013 as the event date, we find that, overall, the stock market responded positively to the announcement of strong anti-corruption actions. The announcement returns are significantly lower for luxury-goods producers, and SOES, large firms, or politically connected firms earn lower returns than private, small, or non-connected firms. We also find that existing local institutions play a crucial role in determining the announcement returns across firms. Moreover, a long-term difference-in-differences analysis shows that higher returns during the event window are associated with more subsequent entries of new firms and faster expansions of existing firms. Finally, we also provide direct evidence consistent with the endogenous grits effect.
