In　recent　years,　global　economic　uncertainty　has　intensified,　making　it　crucial　for　export-oriented　enterprises　to　bolster　their　export　resilience　to　withstand　external　risks.　This　study　uses　the　2012　release　of　the　“Green　Credit　Guidelines”　by　the　former　China　Banking　Regulatory　Commission　as　a　quasi-natural　experiment,　using　data　from　China＇s　listed　manufacturing　firms　between　2009　and　2016.　We　conduct　a　difference-in-differences　model　to　investigate　experimentally　how　green　financing　policies　affect　export　resilience.　According　to　the　findings,　green　finance　policies　considerably　improve　the　export　resilience　of　non-heavily　polluting　enterprises　(NHPEs)　relative　to　their　heavily　polluting　counterparts　(HPEs).　We　conduct　a　number　of　robustness　tests　to　guarantee　the　validity　of　our　conclusions.　Mechanism　analyses　reveal　that　green　finance　policies　improve　export　resilience　through　the　effects　of　green　innovation,　alleviating　financing　constraints,　and　enhancing　ESG　performance.　Heterogeneity　tests　indicate　stronger　impacts　in　state-owned　enterprises,　large-scale　firms,　and　firms　with　longer　operating　histories.　Additionally,　higher　levels　of　regional　digital　inclusive　finance　and　greater　industry　market　concentration　further　reinforce　export　resilience.　Further　analysis　demonstrates　that　green　finance　policies　not　only　improve　NHPEs＇　risk　resistance　but　also　enhance　their　export　recovery　capabilities.　For　businesses　looking　to　use　green　finance　to　increase　export　resilience,　these　findings　provide　insightful　information.　©　2025　Wiley　Periodicals　LLC.
