摘要:Air pollution has a large detrimental effect on human health. Pollution-induced health risk incentivizes households to adjust their life-cycle consumption-saving decision. Using the Chinese Household Finance Survey data, we provide causal evidence that households facing high air pollution consume less but increase the proportion of safe asset. They also invest more in health and exhibit higher demand for insurance. We quantify the welfare cost of the air pollution-related health hazard using a stochastic dynamic overlapping generation model with endogenous health accumulation in a partial equilibrium framework. Our numerical results show that facing air pollution-induced multi-dimensional health hazard, consumption declines due to the crowding out effect of higher health investment and the fall in labor productivity. The overall welfare loss is around 20% in terms of consumption equivalence, over 85% of which is attributed to the more persistent health shock at polluted region.

摘要:Using transaction level credit card spending from a leading Chinese commercial bank, we show that consumers reduce their consumption by 10.39% when the number of local dishonest judgment debtors increases by one percentage point. The consumption response i s spatially highly concentrated, immediate, and not persistent. Additionally, our findings cannot be explained by changes in personal background risks and macroeconomic status. Rather than a decrease in credit supply, we find that the number of local disho nest judgment debtors triggers an active downward adjustment in consumption through a decrease in credit demand. To address endogeneity concerns, we perform a difference in difference analysis.

摘要:We exploit a policy reform that exogenously deteriorates mothers' job prospects. China switched from a one-child policy to two-child in 2016, which increased female workers' childbearing and caring responsibilities. Using a leading peer-to-peer lending platform targeting college students in China, we find that loan applications from female college students decrease by 15.6% relative to male students after the reform. The drop suggests that female students can anticipate the poorer future job prospects; they reduce their expenditure and invest less in human capital accordingly. Applications for long-term and large-amount loans and loans for human capital investment purposes experience the largest decline. We also find that loan applications decrease after provincial governments' staggered extension of maternity leaves and that the decrease is more prominent when the expected motherhood penalty is greater. The results are unlikely driven by credit supply channels.
