融资约束对碳定价政策有效性的影响研究

In the process of low-carbon transition, enterprises require substantial financial support for related investments. Therefore, the effectiveness of carbon pricing policies depends on a well-functioning financial market. However, in reality, financial markets face various frictions that hinder the flow of capital, leading to inefficient allocation of resources. These frictions may affect corporate investment behavior, thereby weakening the implementation effects of carbon pricing policies. This paper, focusing on the issue of financing constraints, constructs an environmental-dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (E-DSGE) model incorporating a financing collateral constraint mechanism to analyze the impact of financing constraints on the effectiveness of carbon pricing policies and explores corresponding policy responses. The results show that: 1) From the perspective of environmental benefits, financing constraints weaken the “emission reduction effect” of carbon pricing policies, suppress corporate low-carbon investments, and reduce corporate emission intensity; 2) From the perspective of economic costs, financing constraints amplify the cost impact of carbon pricing on enterprises, restrict output growth, and increase the overall economic cost of the low-carbon transition; 3) Introducing carbon asset-backed loans as a complementary measure to carbon pricing policies can effectively mitigate the negative impact of financing constraints on carbon pricing policies; 4) Numerical simulation shows that financing constraints increase the proportion of carbon pricing-related costs in enterprises’ total production costs from an average of 15.31% to 19.47% annually, while reducing the annual average scale of low-carbon investments by approximately 37%. Furthermore, providing more carbon asset-backed loans to high-emission enterprises can significantly enhance policy benefits. The conclusions of this paper are of great significance for improving mechanisms for green and low-carbon development and establishing a systematic climate policy framework.
