The impact of fintech innovation on green growth in China: Mediating effect of green finance

Guangyou Zhou et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the impact of fintech and green finance on green growth from the perspective of fintech development. It constructs a comprehensive index to evaluate the green growth of regional economy and tests the impact and mechanism of fintech innovation and green finance on green growth using China's provincial panel data. The results show that fintech and green finance significantly promote green economic growth, with regional heterogeneity. Further research reveals that fintech innovation mainly promotes green economic growth through green credit and green investment.

Shooting two hawks with one arrow: Could China's emission trading scheme promote green development efficiency and regional carbon equality?

Shengling Zhang et al.

Summary: The study shows that China's carbon emission trading scheme significantly improves green development efficiency and regional carbon equality, by enhancing green total factor productivity (GTFP) and reducing investments in carbon-intensive industries. This confirms the Porter hypothesis and investment transfer effect, highlighting the need for a unified national carbon emission trading market and synergy between ETS and command-and-control environmental regulation tools.

Effects of financial agglomeration on green total factor productivity in Chinese cities: Insights from an empirical spatial Durbin model

Rui Xie et al.

Summary: The study found that financial agglomeration can promote the growth of Green Total Factor Productivity (GTFP) in cities but significantly reduces GTFP in surrounding areas, with weak spillover effects in each region. Additionally, cities with a population of less than 3 million are associated with higher GTFP.

Greening through finance?

Haichao Fan et al.

Summary: This study finds that the reinforcement of green credit regulation leads to noncompliant firms facing increased loan interest rates, decreased loan amounts, and more difficulty in accessing loans. There are different impacts on large and small firms in terms of their loans and their financial and economic responses. Furthermore, firms can reduce emissions by investing in abatement facilities or choosing to produce less, with large firms focusing on emission intensity reduction and small firms opting for production reduction.

Spatial heterogeneity in spillover effect of air pollution on housing prices: Evidence from China

Haiyong Zhang et al.

Summary: This study finds that the negative impact of cross-border air pollution from neighboring cities on housing prices is significant when the distance is less than 200 km, but weakens with increasing distance. Additionally, the spillover effect of air pollution is influenced by wind direction, and higher ventilation with lower environmental governance exacerbates the negative impact on housing prices.

New patterns in China's regional green development: An interval Malmquist-Luenberger productivity analysis

Hongyun Huang et al.

Summary: This study proposes a novel global Malmquist-Luenberger productivity index to evaluate the provincial green total factor productivity (GTFP) in China and finds that the overall GTFP in China shows an increasing trend during the study period, with a declining growth rate in recent years. Furthermore, a shift in the inter-regional GTFP patterns from East-Center-West to South-North is observed, indicating a convergence in GTFP between the eastern, central, and western regions, while the gap between the southern and northern regions widens.

Renewable Energy Consumption, CO2 Emissions, and Economic Growth Nexus: A Simultaneity Spatial Modeling Analysis of EU Countries

Riza Radmehr et al.

Summary: The study found positive spatial correlations among economic growth, carbon emissions, and renewable energy consumption in EU countries. The relationships between economic growth and carbon emissions, as well as economic growth and renewable energy consumption, are bidirectional, while the nexus between economic growth and renewable energy consumption is unidirectional. These findings have implications for designing effective environmental and energy policies to meet EU targets for economic development and sustainability.

Financial openness and Chinese regional growth imbalance: New insight from spatial spillovers

Shenguo Yuan et al.

Summary: The study found that financial openness has a positive direct impact on local economic growth, but there is an overall negative spatial spillover effect. The spatial spillover mainly manifests as positive growth externalities and harmful resource competition, but in provinces with high levels of financial openness and in the long term, the negative spatial spillover gradually decreases.

Assessing energy resilience and its greenhouse effect: A global perspective

Kangyin Dong et al.

Summary: The study found that increased energy resilience globally is positively associated with CO2 emissions, and the three sub-indexes of energy resilience (energy access, renewable energy, and energy efficiency) all have a positive impact on greenhouse effect. Additionally, strong energy resilience and CO2 emissions exhibit significant asymmetric and regional heterogeneous relationships, with the positive impact of energy resilience on CO2 emissions mainly stemming from the positive scale effect.

Haste doesn't bring success: Top-down amplification of economic growth targets and enterprise overcapacity

Jiachun Chen et al.

Summary: The study finds that Chinese economic growth targets exhibit a top-down amplification pattern, leading to a decline in local firms' capacity utilization, especially when officials use hard-constraint vocabulary, during the National Congress of Communist Party, and when prefecture-level officials are nearing 55. Officials intervene in local firms' capacity decisions by increasing private communication and loosening public policies within their jurisdictions. The amplification of economic targets is detrimental to future development of both regional economy and local firms.
