Abstract

Regression discontinuity design was proposed by Thistlethwaite and Campbell in 1960, and it was not applied to economic research until the end of the 20th century. With the gradual deepening of scholars’ research on regression discontinuity design, its related theory is gradually perfected, and its application norms are becoming more mature. This makes regression discontinuity design gradually become a mainstream empirical research method. But compared to its application in theoretical economics, the literature on finance is still scarce. Therefore, this article intends to briefly introduce the basic regression discontinuity design to lay a certain theoretical foundation for later scholars to apply it to the financial field. Then sort out the literature and present to readers the current application of regression discontinuity design in the financial field so that scholars can grasp the current research hotspot.
