Abstract

Tourism, as one of the important pillar industries of China's economic development, has also made rapid development. At the same time, the number and the scale of tourism enterprises are also growing. This study collects the marketization index of each province in China, the actual level of foreign capital utilization in each province, and the return on total assets and return on equity of listed tourism companies. In addition, the evaluation of corporate social performance is collected by questionnaire with 500 responses. The results of the model show that the regional formal institution has a significant impact on the financial performance of tourism companies. The total index of marketization, the development of factor markets, the development of market-intermediate institutions and legal framework have significant positive effects on the ROA of tourism listed companies. Foreign direct investment has no significant impact on the performance of tourism listed companies; however, it has impact on their performance under the mediation of regional formal institutions. The total market index, the relationship between government and markets, the development of non-state enterprise sector, the development of factor markets the development of market-intermediate institutions and legal framework have moderating effects on the impact of FDI on ROA. Regional formal institution has a significant impact on consumer perception of social performance of tourism enterprises.
