時間：6月20日（周一）下午2：00-3：30 地點：人大明德主樓734會議室 主講：蔡婧（密歇根大學經濟系助理教授） 主題：Interfirm Relationships and Business Performance（企業間關系與經營績效） 摘要：We organize regular business meetings for randomly selected managers of young Chinese firms to study the effect of business networks on firm performance. We randomize 2,800 managers into several groups that hold monthly meetings, and a “no-meetings” control group. We survey all firms before and after the one-year intervention. We find that: (1) The meetings increase firm sales by 7.7 percentage points, and also increase profits, employment, productivity, and the number of business partners. (2) Firms randomized into groups with larger peer firms exhibit higher growth. (3) The meetings help diffuse randomly distributed business-relevant information. (4) Managers create more business partnerships with, and exhibit higher trust towards, those they meet every month than those they meet at one-time cross group meetings. Experimenter demand effects and other omitted variables are unlikely to explain all the results. We discuss policy implications for business associations in developing countries. 演講者簡介：蔡婧，美國加州大學伯克利分校博士，現任密歇根大學經濟系助理教授。研究領域包括發展經濟學、家庭金融和中國經濟。在American Economic Journal: Applied Economics、American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics、 American Economic Journal: Economic Policy等國際一流或知名經濟學期刊發表論文多篇。任NBER研究員，是Quarterly Journal of Economics, Econometrica, American Economic Journal: Applied Economics, American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, Economic Development and Cultural Change, Journal of Development Economics, Journal of Finance, Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, Journal of Risk and Insurance, Management Science, World Bank Economic Review的匿名審稿人。
