This paper empirically examines how market integration affects the outward foreign direct investment(OFDI)of Chinese enterprises using the data of A-share listed companies from 2009 to 2019,with environmental,social,and governance(ESG)ratings of enterprises as the mediating variables.The degree of market integration is evaluated using the price index method.The study found that during the observation period,market integration can significantly promote the development of OFDI through the ESG channel.To accurately measure the scale of OFDI,the Tobit model was used for analysis.The research findings can provide certain help for understanding the relationship between market integration and OFDI,and have reference value for China to overcome international trade barriers and economic growth bottle necks in the new norm,and to develop higher quality OFDI.This paper not only provides a new perspective for understanding the relationship between market integration,ESG ratings,and OFDI,but also provides valuable insights for realizing the"dual circulation"in China's new development pattern,that is,promoting market integration and improving ESG ratings can effectively promote the outward investments of Chinese enterprises.
