摘要
本文基于2005—2019年42个国家的面板数据,采用固定效应模型实证分析了营商环境与全要素生产率的关系。研究结果表明,营商环境的优化能显著提升一国的全要素生产率。通过使用工具变量法回归、更换解释变量等稳健性检验进一步验证了营商环境对全要素生产率的促进作用。其内在机制为,营商环境的优化降低了各项成本,使资源流入到研发部门,促进了技术创新,进而提高了全要素生产率。异质性分析结果表明,发达国家营商环境对全要素生产率的促进作用大于发展中国家;在营商环境的不同环节中,“跨境贸易”“纳税”等5个指标都具有显著的促进作用。研究结果为中国通过优化营商环境来提升全要素生产率以实现经济高质量发展提供实证支撑。
Based on the panel data of 42 economies from 2005 to 2019, the paper uses a fixed effects model to empirically analyze the relationship between the business environment and total factor productivity.The research results show that the optimization of the business environment can significantly increase the total factor productivity of a country. The robustness tests such as the use of instrumental variable regression and replacement of explanatory variables have further verified the role of the business environment in promoting total factor productivity. The internal mechanism is that the optimization of the business environment reduces various costs, allows resources to flow into the R&D department, promotes technological innovation, and thereby improves total factor productivity. The heterogeneity analysis results show that the business environment of developed countries has a greater role in promoting total factor productivity than developing countries;in different links of the business environment, five indicators such as "trading across borders" and "paying taxes" all have significant positive effects. The research results provide empirical support for China to improve its total factor productivity by optimizing the business environment in the future to achieve high-quality economic development.
