Abstract

Green credit is essential for promoting green and low-carbon development in our country. Its purpose lies in encouraging and restricting heavy polluters to lend money, urging them to increase green investment, transform into green companies, and achieve the purpose of green and low carbon. This paper empirically analyzes how the Green Credit policy affects companies’ green investment behavior. The results show that the green loan system in our country can effectively promote the company's green investment, and this effect is more evident for a company that highly depends on external financing. In addition, the incentive effect of green loans is more obvious in state-owned enterprises and central and western regions. The research results of this project will further clarify the promoting effect of green credit policy on the company's green investment, reveal the mechanism of Green Credit policy on the company's green investment, and provide a theoretical basis for promoting the green transformation and upgrading of enterprises.
