生产性服务业对制造业生产效率提升效应的实证分析——基于中国城市面板数据的空间计量分析

依托生产性服务业的发展带动制造业生产效率的提升,对于中国制造业转型升级具有重要意义。基于2005-2016年中国239个城市层面的面板数据,运用空间面板计量模型（SEM和SAR）,并且构建地理邻接与地理距离两种空间权重矩阵,实证分析了生产性服务业对制造业效率的提升作用。研究表明,生产性服务业不仅可以提升本地区的制造业效率,而且通过空间溢出效应提升其邻近地区的制造业效率。各个区域的生产性服务业对制造业效率的提升作用存在一定的差异,其中长江三角洲地区的提升作用明显高于其他地区,而中部地区的提升作用最小,并且中部地区的空间溢出效应不显著。     

控股股东杠杆增持与审计定价

基于审计成本效益理论和审计风险溢价理论,以2015—2020年我国A股上市公司数据为样本,检验控股股东杠杆增持与审计定价的关系及内在机理。结果表明,控股股东杠杆增持与审计定价正相关。控股股东杠杆增持行为主要通过提高审计师风险溢价以及增加审计投入对审计定价产生促进作用。上述关系在企业存在控股股东股权质押、法律环境较为严格时得到强化,而较好的信息披露质量以及较高的股权制衡度会削弱控股股东杠杆增持与审计定价的正相关关系。同时,控股股东杠杆增持带来的风险溢价效应会抑制审计师出具标准的审计意见,损害审计质量。研究结论有助于强化审计师对控股股东杠杆增持的风险认知,进而为进一步提升审计报告质量、强化投资者保护提供了增量证据。     

Alarms Remain,Efforts Continue

China must come to terms with the fact that it has quality problems in at least 1% of its products. Though there is no country in the world that can completely avoid problems,given the responsible role China plays on the international stage,China should stop to take a look at itself and find ways to improve.China must examine herself carefully,when looking at the production chain;we have to keep aware that some alarms still remain.

境内外人民币远期汇率的关联性分析

随着我国经济对外开放程度的提高,人民币汇率对世界经济的影响也渐次增大,境外机构和个人亟需利用人民币远期汇率对冲人民币汇率风险。然而由于我国实行外汇管制,境外机构不能进入境内外汇市场,于是新加坡在1996年开设了人民币兑美元的无本金交割远期（non-deliverable forward,NDF）市场。随着该市场的迅速发展,NDF汇率与我国境内人民币兑美元远期汇率的关联越益紧密,值得引起我们的高度关注。     

金融担保机构信用风险的生成机理研究

在企业申请担保贷款投资项目中,大多数中小企业（特别是科技型中小企业）缺乏可抵押标的,这导致了中小企业信贷交易中担保风险的生成。企业申请担保贷款投资项目的平均成功概率与企业提供的担保标的的价值成正相关关系;企业提供抵押是有效抑制或消除担保机构与中小企业之间信息不对称及由此而引发的逆向选择和道德风险问题的关键和必要条件。另外,在信息不对称的情况下,信用担保行业的系统性风险越小,意味着信用担保实践的平均成功率越高,这将诱发经理人道德风险的发生。
