Based on incentive theory of motivation, this paper aims to estimate China's basic pension insurance's annual efficiency and inter-period efficiency changes from 2015 to 2019 and further examine the relationship between official tenure and basic pension insurance governance performance.
The DEA-BCC model was used to evaluate the operating efficiency of basic pension insurance in 31 provinces of China. And four panel Tobit models were constructed to examine the heterogeneous linkages between officials' tenure and governance efficiency in different regions of China.
The results showed that there was an inverted U-shaped relationship between the official tenure and the governance efficiency of basic pension insurance. The younger an official was in his current position, the more apparent the inverted U-shaped relationship between the tenure of an official and the governance efficiency of basic pension insurance. We also found that localized government officials showed better governance efficiency of basic pension insurance. However, as the term of office of officials increased, the governance efficiency of non-localized officials showed a steeper negative effect.
This study firstly reveals a significant relationship between the characteristics of officials and the operation of China's basic pension insurance system, which is a complement to the study of China's basic pension systems.
基于激励理论的动机，本文旨在从 2015 年到 2019 年估计中国基本养老保险的年度效率和跨期效率变化，并进一步考察官方任期与基本养老保险治理绩效之间的关系。
使用 DEA-BCC 模型评估中国 31 个省份的基本养老保险运营效率。并构建了四个面板 Tobit 模型，以检验中国不同地区官员任期与治理效率之间的异质联系。
结果表明，官员任期与基本养老保险治理效率之间存在倒 U 型关系。官员在当前职位上越年轻，官员任期与基本养老保险治理效率之间的倒 U 型关系就越明显。我们还发现，地方政府官员表现出更好的基本养老保险治理效率。然而，随着官员任期的延长，非本地化官员的治理效率呈现出更陡峭的负面影响。
本研究首次揭示了官员特征与中国基本养老保险制度运行之间的显著关系，这是对中国基本养老保险制度研究的补充。
