On Dec 8 to 9, 2016, SPEA Teacher Alberto Batinti attended the 2016 Australia Public Election Meeting held by Australian National University in Canberra, Australia.

During the meeting, Alberto Batinti shared his paper Anti-corruption and Investment Evidence from a Quasi-Natural Experiment in China, which studies ACC’s influence to a team of China listed enterprises in 2003-2015. The paper proves that ACC has not influenced investment efficiency and investment reduction is linked to change of opportunity cost instead of policy uncertainty.
Through this meeting, Alberto Batinti had in-depth communication with numerous teachers and students, which laid solid foundation for further cooperation.
