“…Given the institutional rules of the TEZP, this is not surprising. However, it is in contrast with many other evaluations of place-based programs that find evidence of negative spillovers in terms of economic activity (e.g., Givord et al 2013, Hanson and Rohlin 2013, Mayer et al 2015.…”

Targeted Business Incentives and the Debt Behavior of Households

The empirical effects of place-based tax incentive schemes designed to aid low-income communities are unclear. While a growing number of studies find beneficial effects on employment, there is little investigation into other behaviors of households affected by such programs. We analyze the impact of the Texas Enterprise Zone Program on household debt and delinquency. Specifically, we utilize detailed information on all household liabilities, delinquencies, and credit scores from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York Consumer Credit Panel/Equifax, a quarterly longitudinal 5% random sample of all individuals in the US with a social security number and a credit report. We identify the causal effect of the program by using a sharp regression discontinuity approach that exploits the known institutional rules of the program. We find a modest positive impact on the repayment of retail loans, and the evidence of an increase in the delinquency rates of auto loans, as well as in Chapter 13 bankruptcy filings.

“…Solely evaluating the number of created jobs does not tell us whether a place-based policy improves opportunities for employment, increases the income or welfare of disadvantaged who are targeted leave the treated areas in addition to the greatest impact to be on businesses that are founded in enterprise zones or relocate into such zones. Hanson and Rohlin (2013) argue that the effect of enterprise zone programs arises from relocation. Givord et al (2013) find that the second wave of ZFU in 2004 boosted the number of establishments in the treated areas by approximately 5-7% via births and relocations, but the relative impact on relocation is much greater and produces negative spillovers on nearby areas.…”

Evaluating place-based job creation programs in Japan

First, this paper empirically evaluates the incidence of the Japanese place-based job creation program, which has rarely been studied in Japan. The program increases employment, especially in the agricultural, retail trade, and service sectors, which most treated municipalities promote. Second, this paper explores the municipalities that the program affects most. Those with large aging populations and those with small working age populations decrease the effects of the program. Third, this paper assesses the externality effect of this program and does not observe a strong reduction in sales, workers, or establishments in the neighboring municipalities of a treated municipality.
