Authors: Wu, Yongqiu; Huang, Yi; Zhao, Jing; Pu, Yanping
Abstract: Background: After revenue-sharing system reform, the proportion of tax refund in fiscal transfer payments continued to decline, and the proportion of categorical grant and condition grant is increased. The paper studies how transfer payment structure effect fiscal efficiency from the perspective of local financial revenue structure. Methods: This paper use the SE-DEA model to measures the financial efficiency, and studies how transfer payment structure effect fiscal efficiency by the quantile regression method. Results: The theoretical and empirical studies indicate that the tax refund is the most effective policy and the categorical grant is more efficient than condition grant. Conclusions: The China's central government should decrease the condition grant and increases the tax refund or categorical grant in transfer payment.</summary>

Authors: Agyekum, Crentsil Kofi
Abstract: Several years ago, there were crises on mortgage that resulted in a serious thread on financial systems in the United States of America and other developed and developing countries. However, some scholars are of the view that the pro-cyclical nature of the bank led to this serious incident. In this study, we focus on China's bank lending behavior whether it falls within the cyclicality of the banking practices. The study realized that credit distributions were still the managerial way of for transferring government monetary policy. It is not however the actual reasons behind the China's bank counter-cyclical lending. State-owned financial firms within higher ownership are of no doubt of likely to be counter cyclical. Some school of thought are with the view that compared to developed countries, state-owned banks play a major decisions in other developing countries such as Brazil, and they believe that the well performances of this nations are adhering to the financial crises that are highly related to the state-owned banks. For example in China, commercial banks are the main embodiment of China's financial institutions. It is believed that most of these banks have very strong support by the central government and that makes clients pay more attention to their well-being thus implementing the states macroeconomic policies and resisting the financial crises. The study based on other existing researches will take the government monetary policy and commercial banks equity structure into a frame work and under search how they influence the cyclical China's commercial bank lending behavior and project other possible effects for regulatory bodies to take it into account when making a decision.</summary>

    <summary type="text">Title: Export fluctuation and overcapacity in China's manufacturing industry: The inspection of the causes of excess capacity from the perspective of external demand
Authors: Liu, Hang; Li, Ping; Yang, Danhui
Abstract: Background: Intuitively speaking, there is an inverse proportional relationship between exports and overcapacity, which means in export's busy season, enterprises would expand output and improve capacity utilization rate but control yields to avoid dull sale in slack season, causing exacerbated excess capacity. However, this is just the reflections of 'sales effect' on overcapacity by export fluctuation. For some enterprises, there is indeed 'competition effect' which may alleviate overcapacity because enterprises face even more fierce domestic competition for the sake of weak exports and may increase the utilization load of existing capacity in order to cut costs. Methods: A test is conducted in this paper to verify the relationship between export fluctuation and excess capacity based on data of China's manufacturing industry from 2001 to 2013. Results: The overall results indicate that export fluctuation is not the significant cause for excess capacity. In the small- and medium-sized enterprises or in industries with higher proportion of non-state capital, the negative relationship between exports and excess capacity is more obvious, with sales effect taking a dominant position. On the other hand, under the influence of competition effect, the relationship between the two may be positive. Conclusions: Thus, external demand shocks exert different influence on the alleviation of excess capacity of different industries, and extensively driven exports may not have anticipated effect on the dissolution of the excess capacity. To regulate overcapacity with the aid of external market, a fair and orderly competition environment should be provided to the export subjects of different size and ownerships.</summary>

Authors: Tan, Xiao
Abstract: Background: Since the mid-2000s, the Chinese government has increased government health expenditures (GHE) significantly to address widespread complaints about health delivery. This study examines the real per capita provincial GHE over the period 2007-2013 to identify the determinants of provincial GHE during the most recent round of health reforms. Methods: A range of theoretically grounded socioeconomic indicators were collected from the China Statistical Yearbooks and then factored to reduce the number of highly correlated indicators. Maps were drawn to visualise the spatial patterns of key variables and fixed-effects regressions were run to test relationships between the real per capita provincial GHE and various variables. GMM estimators were used to address endogeneity problems. Results: Key determinants of provincial GHE in China include the real per capita budgetary deficits, economy, and industrial structure (two factors composed from an exploratory factor analysis). Increasing 1000 yuan real per capita budgetary deficits was expected to increase the real per capita GHE by 34 yuan. A one-unit increase in the economy was associated with a 249 yuan higher real per capita GHE, while a one-unit increase in the industrial structure was expected to decrease the real per capita GHE by 33 yuan. Conclusions: The findings of this study reveal a worrisome picture: potential inefficiencies of the central government's funding efforts and the overwhelming importance of economic development for GHE.</summary>
