Abstract This paper works out the financial constraints index of hi tech enterprises by logistic model and measures their R&D investment efficiency. On this basis, the author theoretically analyzes and empirically tests the correlations between the financial constraints of hi tech companies and their R&D investment efficiency. The result shows that on the one hand, the R&D investment efficiencies of high financial constraints and low financial constraints are significantly different, which is average at 0.5121 and 0.3870 respectively. On the other hand, the regression test shows that the increase of financial constraints will positively increase the R&D investment efficiency, which means the existence of financial constraints, to some extent, will reduce the negative effects of principal-agent problems.
