Abstract

The article explores the relationship between executives' overseas background and corporate green innovation and the mechanism of their role, using A-share listed companies from 2012 to 2022 as the research object. The analysis shows that executives' overseas background will significantly promote corporate green innovation output; executives with overseas experience are more willing to take risks and are willing to carry out green innovation activities with higher uncertainty and longer payback cycle of ordinary investment and R&D innovation; executives with overseas background can improve corporate financing constraints, which will then positively promote corporate green innovation.
