Property Law (PL) and Export Product Quality: A study from the perspective of financial constraints

The paper adopted the back-calculation method to measure the quality of Chinese export products through screening and merging China’s Industrial Enterprise Database and Chinese Customs Database from 2004-2013. To establish the causal relationship, it constructed the Difference in Difference (DID) approach based on the quasi-natural experiment of the Property Law (PL) promulgated in 2007 to study the effect of the law on export quality by alleviating financial constraints.

As per our research goal, we have collected secondary data from the above sources and prepared it for further analysis.
