近年来,我国企业的债务水平迅速上升。这种上升表现出怎样的结构性特征?背后的原因又是什么?文章利用中国上市公司2001−2016年年报数据,发现国有企业与私营企业的杠杆率差异从2008年开始明显上升且由负转正,两者的杠杆率剪刀差发生逆转。进一步的研究表明,在控制了企业杠杆率的常见影响因素之后,国有企业与私营企业的杠杆率差异从2008年开始与企业所在地的GDP增速呈现出显著的负相关关系,而私营企业的投资−现金流敏感性在2008年前后则没有出现明显的变化。这说明国企与私企杠杆率剪刀差的逆转主要来源于稳增长压力上升所引致的地方政府对国有企业融资决策的干预。文章的发现为2008年以来我国国企杠杆率的相对上升提出了一种全新的解释,有助于我们更加全面和深入地认识我国企业债务结构性问题的成因,也为国有企业结构性去杠杆的政策选择提供了参考。
