摘要：
Export tax rebate is an important trade policy to adjust exports in many countries around the world. In this paper, we mainly exam the impact of export tax rebate on firm productivity by using the data from China’s manufacturing firms during 2000-2007. The empirical finding documents that an increase in export tax rebate decreases firm’s total factor productivity (TFP) significantly. This result is robust to the alternative measures of our key variables and endogenous concerns. Export tax rebate also leads to reallocated resources between firms towards less productive firms, which expands the TFP dispersion. Moreover, export tax rebate mainly decreases the TFP of survival firms resulting in the decrease of aggregate TFP. Finally, we provide extensive evidences that export tax rebate discourages export technology upgrading and reduces firm’s markup, confirming our main findings again.
