Based on a bag-of-words textual analysis, we find a positive association between firms’ expressions of national sentiment and their successes in securing government
procurements. This effect is stronger for competitive contracts, non-local procurements, and procurements from lower government levels, particularly post-2020. An alternative genuine corporate nationalism measure generated by a multidimensional AI technique
confirms our results. Lower likelihood of regulatory sanctions and increased fiscal
support are identified as two potential mechanisms. Our main findings remain valid after
considering various robustness checks and endogeneity issues.
