本研究记录了一个未被探索的非代表性政权中的企业寻租现象--将总部迁往政治中心。以中国为例,我们发现,将总部迁往北京(政治中心)的企业获得了更多的政治优惠,而迁往上海或深圳(中国两大经济中心)的企业则没有。尽管这两类搬迁者的盈利能力都有所提高,但搬迁后,他们的可持续增长路径却有所不同。企业的生产率和创新能力在迁往北京后恶化,但在迁往上海或深圳后有所改善。总的来说,这些发现支持了这样一种观点,即政治偏袒有利于企业的盈利能力,但损害了它们的生产力和创新。
This study documents an unexplored corporate rent-seeking phenomenon in non-representative regimes—relocating headquarters (HQ) to the political center. Focusing on China, we find that firms that relocate their HQs to Beijing (the political center) enjoy increased political favors, but those that move to Shanghai or Shenzhen (the country's two main economic centers) do not. Although both groups of movers experience improved profitability, their sustainable growth paths diverge after relocating. Firm productivity and innovation worsen after relocating to Beijing, but improve after moving to Shanghai or Shenzhen. Overall, these findings support the argument that political favoritism benefits firms' profitability but impairs their productivity and innovation.
