Abstract:
Digital inclusive finance is an important engine for enhancing regional financial resilience in the new development stage. Based on this, this paper takes digital inclusive finance as the starting point and uses the panel data of 283 cities from 2011 to 2019 to explore the impact of digital inclusive finance on China's regional financial resilience. The results show that digital inclusive finance has a significant role in enhancing regional financial resilience. The education level and consumption level are important transmission mechanisms between the two, and the improvement of the innovation and entrepreneurship level is conducive to the effective play of this role. Meanwhile, this role shows significant heterogeneous characteristics in the sub-dimensions, business segments, geographical locations, traditional financial development and the degree of opening up of digital inclusive finance. In addition, there is a certain non-linear relationship between the impact of digital inclusive finance on regional financial resilience, specifically presenting an inverted U-shaped structure. The conclusions of this paper not only provide a new perspective for in-depth understanding of the impact of digital inclusive finance on China's financial development, but also point out the direction for accelerating the construction of a financial powerhouse in the new era.
