- Abstract
With the continuous improvement of economic level, the asset allocation of Chinese households are increasingly skewed towards financial products. At present, most researches about the household asset allocation mainly focus on the influence of residents’ characteristics or financial literacy, while few researches on the internal relationship between household risk, asset structure and allocation choice. Under the background of population aging, it is of great significance to study the influence of parental health status on household risky financial assets. In this paper, Probit model and Tobit model were constructed to analyze the influence of parental health on family asset allocation, and the mediating effect was used to test the influential mechanism of parental health status on family asset allocation with intergenerational care. Finally, the heterogeneity of mediating effect between urban and rural families was analyzed. The research shows that the better parents’ health status, the greater probability and depth of family's participation in the financial risk assets allocation. This impact can be generated through parental care for the offspring in family. However, compared with rural families, the path of influence in urban families is no longer significant.
