Abstract
This paper examines whether an increase in bank competition affects firms' share price crash risk, using A-share listed companies in China from 2009 to 2021 as a research sample. The study finds that firms' share price crash risk decreases with the increase of banking competition; the mediation test finds that the increase of banking competition inhibits corporate non-compliance and increases the disclosure requirements of internal control information, reducing the share price crash risk.
