Abstract

In recent years, the excessive investment of entity enterprises leads to the phenomenon of enterprise financialization, which makes the development of entity enterprises fall into a vicious circle. How to restrain the excessive financialization trend of enterprises and promote the high-quality development of real enterprises has become an urgent problem to be solved. Based on the financial data of listed companies in A-share manufacturing industry from 2008 to 2022, this paper studies the possible inhibitory effect of enterprise R&D investment on finalized investment from the perspective of asset allocation and market competition. The results show that R&D investment is significantly negatively correlated with the level of enterprise financialization, that is, R&D investment can restrain enterprise financialization to a certain extent. Further research shows that increasing cash holding and increasing market power are two intermediary paths for R&D investment to restrain the financialization of enterprises.
