Abstract

The absence of formal financial services in the face of the actual economy's transition from old to new sources of energy and development modes has led to the emergence of a widespread shadow banking sector. Based on the high-order ladder theory, this paper examines the influence of executives' financial background on non-financial firms' shadow banking. The finding reveals a positive impact of executive financial backgrounds on non-financial firms' shadow banking, mainly driven by the executives' non-banking financial experiences, primarily contributing to the shadow credit chain model. Additionally, high-quality external audits discourage management from engaging in blind shadow banking activities.
