This paper investigates how state ownership affects corporate resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using data from Chinese listed firms, we find that state ownership enhances corporate resilience during the pandemic. Mechanism tests indicate that state ownership enables state-owned-enterprises to access more government subsidies and bank loans, which help to increase their resilience.
