Listed companies use various financing methods to raise funds and invest in projects with high returns. This, on the micro level, helps the companies to maximize their value and brings economic returns to their investors and stockholders. On the macro level, this accelerates the flow of capital into industries with higher returns, optimize the allocation of resources and improve the efficiency of the whole economy. This can explain why financing of listed companies is a hot topic in corporate financing.The new-type and transforming capital market in China has many unique characteristics compared to the traditional and mature capital markets. There are many things in Chinese listed companies that are different with or even against to the traditional financing theories, like the keen preference of equity financing, the choice of financing timing, reverse method to decide the financing scale, fake information to be listed, frequent changes in the process, intendance to over finance and the management of surplus. Therefore, we can not use traditional corporate financing theories to explain these characteristics.Behavioral Finance analyzes financial and economic problems from a new perspective. Since the Limited Rationality Hypothesis of Behavioral Finance could better follow the real situation of financial and economic market than the complete rationality hypothesis of the traditional finance theories, it could more effectively explain many phenomena.
