Does an imbalance in the population gender ratio affect FinTech innovation?

Xiaohui Chen et al.

Summary: An imbalance in the population gender ratio in China has real-world consequences, including its impact on FinTech innovation. This paper constructs a provincial FinTech innovation index from 2008 to 2018 using text mining and CRITIC methods, and examines the influence of gender ratio on FinTech innovation. The findings indicate that gender imbalance can stimulate FinTech innovation by increasing social risk-taking, but it also leads to higher FinTech risk exposure. This research provides insights into the demographic reasons behind the growth and development of China's FinTech industry.

How will promoting the digital economy affect electricity intensity?

Boqiang Lin et al.

Summary: The digital economy plays a crucial role in transforming economic and social development and has a diverse impact on carbon neutrality. However, the relationship between digitalization and electricity intensity remains unclear and debatable. This study fills the gap by measuring the level of the digital economy in 227 Chinese cities from 2011 to 2019 and investigating the nonlinear effects and mechanisms of the digital economy on electricity intensity using the panel smooth transition model. The findings show that the digital economy promotes electricity intensity with an inverted U-shaped effect, indicating that it increases electricity intensity through infrastructure development and electronic item usage while reducing it through changes in consumption and technological advancements. This study provides valuable insights and improves understanding regarding the correlation between the digital economy and electricity intensity.
