Chain-master firms’ digitalization and supply chain resilience: Evidence from China

The replication package “Code and Data” contains two folders:
Data: all intermediate datasets used to construct the final analysis dataset, including raw data from CSMAR, firm-level variables extracted from annual reports, region-level policy data, and other supporting files for cleaning and matching. This folder also contains a gephi subfolder with yearly network-construction files (e.g., edge lists) used to build the supply-chain network and compute network metrics such as degree centrality and closeness centrality, which are then imported into Stata for subsequent analysis.
Do_file: Stata scripts for data construction and empirical analysis:
 Data_merge.do: compiles the final analysis dataset by processing and merging raw/intermediate datasets (e.g., cleaning identifiers, matching firms across sources, constructing variables, and generating the final panel). This script directly addresses the editor’s request to provide code that transforms multiple raw sources into the final dataset.
 main.do: runs all baseline and additional regressions and exports the main tables and figures.
