Abstract

Since the promulgation of the Guarantee Law of the People’s Republic of China, the pledge of equity in China’s capital market is becoming more and more frequent. This paper attempts to study the relationship between equity pledge, the individual behavior of shareholders and cash holding level of enterprises. Based on the data of Shanghai-Shenzhen A-share listed companies in 2009-2016, multiple regression model was established to study the impact of equity pledge behavior on corporate cash holdings. It is found that equity pledge and pledge ratio are significantly negatively correlated with cash holding level. This can effectively alleviate the financial constraints of listed companies in China.
