摘要

Over the past 35 years, high-trust countries have experienced faster growth in credit to private sector. We model trust as a collective reputation to understand its role in shaping different credit growth paths. The co-existence of equilibria with different trust levels suggests distrust to be a self-fulfilling prophecy: borrowers in a "low-trust" equilibrium opting for strategic default, driving up population-average default rates and borrowing costs, forcing credit supply and switching into informal credit market, and ultimately limiting economic growth. Both country-level implications and micro-mechanisms are empirically investigated. In particular, distrust persistently predicts lower GDP growth, which can be partially explained by slower credit expansion; lower trust forces peoples credit-related activities from financial institutions to private channels, either due to narrower formal inclusion or less active adoption. Our model also rationalizes the heterogeneous effects of financial regulation tightening under different trust levels, which discourages low-trust countries from imitating financial liberalization in high-trust economies. Empirically, financial liberalization corresponds to higher GDP growth in high-trust countries but lower GDP growth in low-trust countries, implying that regulation serves as an additional mechanism for credit divergence.
