How Does Digital Transformation Promote Cross-Regional Capital Flow?——Evidence Based on Listed Companies
Against the background of building a national unified large market and constructing a new development pat-tern,this paper empirically tests the impact and mechanism of enterprise digital transformation on capital cross-regional flow.It is found that the improvement of the digitalization level can significantly promote the cross-regional capital flow,which specifically is reflected in the increase in the number of new non local subsidiaries,and can form a promoting effect with overlapping characteristics over a long time series and exhibit structural heterogeneity.The promotion effect of the digitalization improvement on the cross-regional capital flow is mainly realized through the channels of improving total fac-tor productivity and optimizing human capital structure.However,the government-enterprise relationship represented by fi-nancial subsidies has a negative effect on the effect of enterprise digitization level on the cross-regional capital flow.
