Overview

Panel data analysis reveals supplier list disclosure impairs operational performance while boosting innovation in listed firms, highlighting strategic trade-offs in supply chain transparency.

Key Points

  • To examine how proactive supplier list disclosure simultaneously influences firms' operational and innovation performance, identifying the boundary conditions that amplify each opposing outcome.
  • Analyzed longitudinal panel data from Chinese listed firms spanning 2012 to 2024.
  • Tested relational view mechanisms on operational performance using supplier concentration and buyer competition as moderators.
  • Tested signaling mechanisms on innovation performance using media coverage and corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance as moderators.
  • Supplier list disclosure significantly reduced operational performance, with damages magnified by high supplier concentration and intense buyer competition.
  • Supplier list disclosure significantly improved innovation performance, with positive effects reinforced by extensive media coverage and stronger CSR ratings.
