Abstract
With the development of ESG concept in China,the relationship between ESG performance and financing con⁃straints has become a hot topic in the academic circle.This paper takes China's Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share non-financial lis⁃ted companies from 2013 to 2023 as samples,constructs a moderated intermediary effect model,and empirically analyzes the inter⁃mediary role of agency cost between ESG performance and financing constraints,as well as the moderating role of enterprise life cy⁃cle.Research shows that good ESG performance can alleviate financing constraints;Improving ESG performance can reduce agency costs,thereby easing financing constraints.Mechanism analysis shows that the improvement of ESG performance of growth-stage enterprises and maturity-stage enterprises can alleviate financing constraints,and the mitigation effect is most obvious in growth-stage enterprises,while the intermediary effect of agency cost is only significant in the growth-stage sample enterprises.The conclu⁃sion is still valid after the robustness test with instrumental variable method and system GMM method.This paper provides a new perspective and thinking for studying the relationship between ESG performance and financing constraints.关键词
