Abstract
Exploring the intersection of new technologies and financial services, this study probes the role of digital inclusive finance in enhancing the performance of individual investors. Utilizing a unique dataset, we examine the influence of digital inclusive finance in diverse financial environments, particularly focusing on areas with varying levels of traditional financial development and investor protection. Our panel-data statistical model addresses endogeneity concerns, revealing that digital inclusive finance notably boosts investor performance, primarily through enhanced investment diversification and reduced disposition effect. These improvements are more pronounced in regions with underdeveloped traditional finance or robust investor protection. This study not only contributes to understanding the nexus between digital inclusive finance and investor behavior but also suggests policy implications. We recommend leveraging digital financial strategies to empower investors, particularly in less developed financial regions, to maximize the benefits of digital inclusive finance inclusivity.
