The impact of land resources dual misallocation on the over-investment of enterprises by WANG Min, PENG Shangui, YANG Haoda, YU Xinyuan, HU Yuying

“…[Results] (1) Both land resources spatial and use misallocation significantly contributed to the over-investment of enterprises, and the impact of land resources use misallocation on the over-investment of enterprises was regulated by spatial misallocation. (2) In cities with relative land supply surplus, land resources spatial misallocation promoted over-investment of enterprises by exacerbating the disorderly expansion of enterprises and the imbalance of economic structure. In cities with relative land supply shortage, land resources spatial misallocation promoted over-investment by triggering financing expansion and factor substitution. (3) In cities with relative land supply surplus, land resources use misallocation promoted over-investment by providing multiple subsidies and reducing the entry threshold of enterprises. …”
