Abstract

As environmental concerns continue to grow, effective policies aimed at controlling air pollution have become critical for both public health and economic sustainability. The findings indicate that the pilot policy for key air pollution control areas has a significant positive influence on the allocation of supply chain financial resources by firms; environmental regulatory pressure plays a notable moderating role between the pilot policy for key air pollution control areas and the allocation of supply chain financial resources; there is significant heterogeneity in the impact of the pilot policy on the allocation of supply chain financial resources between heavily polluting industries and non-heavily polluting industries; and the impact of the pilot policy on the allocation of supply chain financial resources also exhibits significant heterogeneity between firms with executives having a financial background and those without. The conclusions of this research provide practical guidance for the formulation of environmental policies, particularly by considering the heterogeneity effects based on industry characteristics and the background of corporate executives, thereby optimizing policy effectiveness.
