“…(2) Evaluations of sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones. Research on this topic mainly explores how to scientifically evaluate the sustainable development level of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones through establishing various evaluation index systems and methods, e.g., analytic hierarchy processes [34][35][36][37], grey correlation methods [38,39], and data envelopment analysis methods [40][41][42].…”

This paper evaluates the sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones and their impact on regional economic growth. A comprehensive performance evaluation system is constructed to assess the degree of sustainable development in the first five batches of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones in China between 2011 and 2020, which reveals significant regional differences and a clear “Matthew effect”. We also quantify the specific role of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones in promoting regional economic growth; specifically, we demonstrate that the level of sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones has a significant positive impact on regional economic growth and show that these effects vary according to regional distribution, city level, and the degree of sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones. On this basis, we explore the mechanism through which these factors influence one another and identify three main channels on which to focus for further development: industrial structure upgrades, institutional innovation, and consumption upgrades. Finally, based on empirical results, we propose differentiated policy suggestions for various regions and city levels through the provision of theoretical and practical support for promoting the healthy and sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce pilot zones and the stable growth of regional economies.

“…Commonly used robustness testing methods include the instrumental variable method (Peng et al, 2020;Liu et al, 2022;Peng et al, 2022.;Zhao et al, 2022), variable lag, etc. At the same time, controlling individual effects of enterprises is also an important robustness testing method (Peng et al, 2021a;Peng et al, 2021c;Peng R. et al, 2021;Gu et al, 2021).…”

The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the economy and industry has gradually extended from the macroeconomic to the microeconomic level. Artificial intelligence technology has brought great innovation and impact to the company’s operation and management and has a strong role in promoting the level of corporate governance. Based on an in-depth analysis of the theoretical mechanism of artificial intelligence affecting corporate governance, and based on the balanced panel data of Chinese A-share listed companies from 2011 to 2020, this paper empirically analyzes the mechanism and intermediary effect of artificial intelligence affecting corporate governance. The study found that AI applications can significantly improve corporate governance levels, and a higher level of artificial intelligence application can produce a higher level of corporate governance. From the perspective of the impact path, artificial intelligence technology can significantly improve the degree of information symmetry required for corporate governance, thereby providing favorable technical conditions and decision support for improving the level of corporate governance. Artificial intelligence technology has a positive and effective impact on corporate governance through the information symmetry effect.

“…Otherwise, polluting enterprises would face the risk of fines or other penalties. Whether it is innovative or not, the cost of the business would rise in a short term, because under the stricter environmental regulations, a company has to choose whether to invest more in discharge reduction technology or relocate, or be fined for pollution (Peng et al, 2022a;Peng et al, 2022b;Wu et al, 2021;Zhao et al, 2021). Environmental regulations may stimulate companies' environmental R&D expenditures, replacing non-environmental R&D expenditures.…”

The Porter hypothesis suggests that well-designed environmental regulation can trigger regional technological innovation that helps gain competitiveness. Little attention has been paid to whether China’s urban environmental legislation supports Porter hypothesis (PH). An empirical test was conducted based on panel data of 218 prefecture-level cities during 2003–2017 to examine the effects of urban environmental legislation on innovation and green total factor productivity (green TFP). The findings reveal that the urban environmental legislation increased the number of local green patents, which means that the weak Porter hypothesis was established. However, the urban environmental legislation did not lead to an increase in green TFP so that the strong version of PH did not hold. Further analysis showed that the urban environmental legislation led to the decline of green TFP and the increase of green patents in the west of China, but in the east and central cities, the changes were not visible. Besides, the legislation did not promote green TFP improvement through green innovation in the short term, which means it did not realize process compensation.
