Abstract

This paper selects relevant data from listed manufacturing enterprises in China from 2008 to 2021 as a sample and employs a fixed-effects model to examine the impact of short-term cross-border capital flows on corporate financialization. The study finds that cross-border capital inflows can enhance corporate financialization; when investor sentiment rises, it will, to a certain extent, facilitate the positive effect of short-term cross-border capital inflows on corporate financialization; moreover, the degree of financialization in private enterprises is more significantly influenced by cross-border capital flows.
