Abstract

This paper uses firm level data from World Bank Survey to analyze different constraints on firm growth in China. By studying 12,400 firms, we find that, employee skill has a significant effect on firm growth for all firm size levels, and there is no significant difference for this effect on firms with different scales. However, micro-sized firms face severe financial constraint. Large-sized firms are constrained by infrastructure development. Mid and small-sized firms face more market institutional challenges. This paper calls for significant attentions on Corporate Social Responsibility and Business Sustainability in China.
