Research on the Impact of Digital Financial Inclusion on Carbon Emission Efficiency
Based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China during2011-2020,the Super-SBM model was used to calculate the carbon emission efficiency of each province and region in China.On this basis,the impact mechanism of digital financial inclusion on carbon emission efficiency was analyzed by using spatial exploratory analysis,fixed effect model,spatial econometric model and other systems.The research shows that China's carbon emission efficiency is on the rise,but the overall level of efficiency is not high,and there is a large room for improvement.The carbon emission efficiency of resource-based provinces such as Shanxi,Heilongjiang,Jilin and Hebei has a U-shaped spatial pattern of"high at both ends and low in the middle".There is a significant positive correlation between the development level of digital inclusive finance and carbon emission efficiency in China.Digital financial inclusion can significantly improve carbon emission efficiency,and this conclusion still holds after replacing the core explanatory variables and transforming the model.Heterogeneity test shows that digital inclusive finance plays a more prominent role in improving carbon emission efficiency in resource-based provinces in central China.During the period of strategic de velopment in digital inclusive finance,its role in enhancing carbon emission efficiency has become increasingly prominent.Therefore,local governments should strengthen the construction of information infrastructure,promote the integration of digitalization into the whole process of inclusive finance development,and give full play to the promoting effect of digital inclusive finance on carbon emission efficiency.
