摘要
We investigate the impact of green credit policy on the R&D investment of "two high and one leftover" enterprises using China's 2012 "Green Credit Guidelines" and the difference-indifference method. The first key finding is that the implementation of green credit policy is detrimental to the R&D investment of "two high and one leftover" enterprises, as verified by relevant robustness tests. Second, the heterogeneity analysis reveals that the impact of green credit policy on enterprise R&D investment is shaped by market environment, geography, and firm type. Third, economic policy uncertainty influences the disincentivizing effect of green credit policy on R&D investment.
