Abstract

Using data from 285 prefecture-level cities in China from 2005–2016, this paper investigates the impact of regional financial resources on high-end service industry agglomeration through spatial error and threshold models. The results show that the high-end service industry agglomeration has a significant spatial correlation. Financial resources play a significant positive role in promoting the agglomeration of the high-end service industry, but the influence is non-linear. Constrained by level of economic development level, this effect has an inverted U-shape. Constrained by financing capacity, this effect is positive under different threshold intervals but shows a decreasing trend.
