Abstract: This study focuses on the relationship between reputation resources and debt maturity structure and finds that enhancing reputation resources can optimize debt maturity structure, in which corporate credit ratings play a mediating role; moreover, there are differences in the impact of reputation resources on debt maturity structure for firms of different natures, in which the impact is more significant for non-state-owned firms. The findings of this study remain valid after the robustness and endogeneity tests.
