Abstract

In order to encourage enterprises to strengthen green innovation and cope with increasingly prominent environmental problems, China government has introduced a series of green financial policies. But, how does green innovation affect debt financing costs in practice ? The purpose of this paper is to test the impact of green innovation on the cost of debt financing with the sample of Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listed companies from 2010 to 2019. It is found that there is significantly negative correlation between the debt financing costs of listed companies and their green innovation, and green innovation significantly reduces the debt financing costs. The findings also include that the accounting conservatism strengthens the reduction effect of green innovation on debt financing costs, and the nature of property rights weakens the reduction effect of green innovation on debt financing costs.
