Abstract
- In this paper, we investigate the innovative efficiency of SOEs in China. Innovative efficiency refers to output of patents per dollar spending of R&D expenditure. The data indicate that minority SOEs are substantially more innovatively efficient than non-SOEs and majority SOEs. The relative innovative efficiency of minority SOEs is more pronounced among firms with high financial constraints. The data are consistent with the view that, in the Chinese context, there are favorable benefits to partial state ownership through access to talent, connections, and technological resources that enable efficient patent outcomes from R&D expenditure. • We investigate the innovative efficiency (patents per dollar spending of R&D expenditure) of Chinese SOEs. • We show minority SOEs are substantially more innovatively efficient than non-SOEs and majority SOEs. • The relative innovative efficiency of SOEs is more pronounced among firms with high financial constraints.
