Abstract

Implemented the Belt and Road Initiative as a quasi-natural experiment, this article examines the impact of the Belt and Road initiative on the trade credit supply of Chinese enterprises using the DID method. Based on the data of Chinese A-share listed companies from 2011 to 2017, the study finds that the implementation of the Belt and Road initiative has reduced the level of trade credit supply for Chinese enterprises. Further research finds that the implementation of the Belt and Road initiative has significantly reduced the trade credit supply level of private enterprises and large enterprises. The test based on industrial heterogeneity shows that the implementation of the Belt and Road initiative has strongly reduced the level of trade credit supply in the manufacturing industry and emerging industries. The economic consequences test presents that the Belt and Road initiative is capable to effectively alleviate the crowding-out effect of the trade credit supply on corporate investment. This article provides a timely feedback on the economic effects of the Belt and Road initiative, meanwhile serves as a supplement and further development of the product quality assurance theory by trade credit.
