Abstract

This paper takes the implementation of the natural resource asset departure audit of leading cadres as a quasi-natural experiment and uses the differin-differences model to explore the impact of the natural resource asset departure audit of leading cadres on the financing constraints of heavily polluting enterprises and its mechanism of action. The study found that the implementation of the natural resource asset departure audit for leading cadres significantly alleviated the financing constraints of heavily polluting enterprises; Mechanism analysis shows that the natural resource asset departure audit for leading cadres alleviates the financing constraints of heavily polluting enterprises by promoting corporate social responsibility fulfillment and improving the quality of information disclosure of heavily polluting enterprises.
