The Interplay of Exploratory vs Exploitative Innovation and Firm Growth Performance in China

Based on the data of listed construction companies in the jewelry manufacturing industry in 1994 from 2014 to 2017, this article uses the generalized least squares method to analyze the relationship between green energy technology innovation, construction enterprises’ growth performance and R&D investment intensity, and explores the impact of green energy technology innovation on construction enterprises’ growth performance and analyzes the moderating effect of R&D investment intensity. The empirical results show that green energy technological innovation has a significant positive impact on construction enterprises’ growth performance. The intensity of R&D investment has a significant negative regulatory effect on the relationship between green energy technological innovation and construction enterprises’ growth performance.

The Impact

The aim of this study is to analyze empirically the impact of taxation and corruption on the growth of manufacturing firms in Vietnam. The study employed pooled OLS estimation and then instrument variables with fixed effect for the panel data of 1377 firms in Vietnam from 2005 to 2011. These data were obtained from the survey of the Central Institute for Economic Management and the Danish International Development Agency. The results show that both taxation and corruption are negatively associated with firm growth measured by firm sales adjusted according to the GDP deflator. A one-percentage point increase in the bribery rate is linked with a reduction of 16,883 percentage points in firm revenue, over four and a half times bigger than the effect of a one-percentage point increase in the tax rate. From the findings of this research, the author recommends the Vietnam government to lessen taxation on firms and that there should be an urgent revolution in anti-corruption policies as well as bureaucratic improvement in Vietnam.
