Abstract

Abstract In recent years, the innovation behavior of enterprises has attracted more and more attention. Our study proves that encouraging bank competition can promote enterprise innovation. The study found that there is a negative correlation between the bank concentration index in county areas and the innovation output of local enterprises in China. At the same time, we find that bank competition can more effectively improve the financing constraints of private enterprises and small enterprises, thus promoting enterprise innovation.
