简政放权对企业创新研发的引致效应

The Impact of Streamlining Administration on Enterprise Innovative R&D

企业的创新发展需要良好的制度环境。本文探讨政府简政放权相关制度要素对微观企业创新研发的引致效应。选取2008—2016年度A股上市公司作为研究样本,并结合《中国分省企业经营环境指数报告》中的相关指标进行宏观数据与微观数据匹配,研究发现:(1)政府放权程度愈高,对企业创新投入与研发产出的激励效应愈为显著,经过一系列稳健性检验后,该结论依然可靠;(2)放权越彻底,企业制度性交易成本越低,特别是对于高财务杠杆企业和大规模企业,对制度环境的预期越加乐观,制度环境对创新活动的激励效应愈加显著。为进一步把脉行政体制改革、引导微观主体创新,应进一步完善政府治理、激发企业创新活力。
