Sažetak
In this paper, we empirically investigate how a governmental environmental
information disclosure (EID) program in China affects the
extensive and intensive margins of export for a panel of Chinese
industrial firms. The results show that stricter enforcement of environmental
disclosure discourages firms’ participation in export.
However, the export volume of remaining exporting firms increases
following more environmental disclosure. The results are robust to a
battery of robustness checks as well as an IV estimation. Mechanism
analysis reveals that firms’ propensity of innovation increases after
stricter enforcement of disclosure, lending support for the Porter
hypothesis.
