Abstract

Building a good legal environment is of great significance to the high-quality development of China’s bond market. This article uses quasi natural experiments on the establishment of bankruptcy courts in various regions of China and uses the difference in differences method to identify the impact of legal strengthening on bond credit risk under different debt structures of enterprises. Research has found that the establishment of bankruptcy courts can significantly reduce the secondary market spread of local corporate bonds, and in the case of increased corporate bank debt, the establishment of bankruptcy courts will significantly increase the credit spread of bonds. The research conclusion of this article indicates that the construction of the rule of law environment should be combined with the reasonable adjustment of the debt structure of the issuing enterprises themselves in order to better play the role of institutional construction and promote the high-quality development of China’s finance.
