Using China’s cadre promotion system\, we show that mayors eligible for promotion expand infrastructure investment through bank-financed debt\, raising local government liabilities by 13% of GDP. This debt expansion crowds out private firms\, reducing their credit access\, investment\, employment\, and productivity. The distortion is weaker for state-owned and infrastructure-related firms\, highlighting unequal access to finance. Our findings reveal how career concerns of local officials translate into financial repression\, offering new evidence on the institutional origins of capital misallocation in developing economies.
