摘要
Using Heckman two stage regression, this paper investigates the effect of political connections of ST firms on firm performance. We find that political connections do play a positive role on the firm performance, but the influence is effective in the short term. What's more, the influence varies from the ownership of distress firms, for private distressed firms, the influence of political connections on firm performance is significant positive, but such a pattern is not observed in stated-owned enterprises.
