Abstract

This paper studies the relationship between green innovation, financing constraints and financial performance of listed companies on the Shanghai-Shenzhen Exchange 2010-2019. The research found that the financing constraints of listed companies are significantly negatively correlated with green innovation, that is, the stronger the green innovation capacity a listed company has, the less fancying constraint it faces. Further research found that both accrual surplus management and real surplus management positively moderate the relationship between financing constraints and green innovation. Compared with the lower level of surplus management, green innovation of enterprises with higher degree of surplus management has a more remarkable effect on financing constraints. Therefore, enterprises should strengthen green innovation, ease financing constraints; reasonably and moderately conduct surplus management, and improve accounting information disclosure mechanism.
