活动简介:

Commodity futures, a type of financial innovation that has been widely traded in the real sector since the 19th century, have long been deemed as tools to improve risk management and enhance operation performance. In this paper, I unveil a dark side of commodity futures: they impede corporate technology innovation performance. Specifically, utilizing the staggered nature of commodity futures listings across industries and a comprehensive sample of medium- and large-sized Chinese manufacturers from 1998 to 2013, I find that the listings of commodity futures decrease the quantity of patent outputs, lower the frequencies that these patents are cited, and weaken firms’ efforts in inventing general technologies and exploring new technology fields. These findings are robust to alternative difference-in-differences designs. Further tests suggest that such dark side plays a role because commodity futures, rather than induce corporate myopia, stimulate financial speculation and intensify product competition.
