Abstract
The development of digital finance is anticipated to alleviate the dilemma of corporate green technology innovation. This study selects manufacturing enterprises that are publicly listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges as well as the Growth Enterprise Market in China, as research samples, of which the data spans from 2011 to 2020. An empirical research using a matched dataset of this period demonstrates that the growth of digital finance has a significantly positive impact on the promotion of green technology innovation in Chinese manufacturing companies. This result remains valid even after conducting rigorous testing to ensure its reliability and taking into account the potential influence of endogeneity. Moreover, this promoting effect exhibits heterogeneity due to differences in enterprise size and property rights. In the future, governments, financial institutions, and enterprises should collaborate to promote the improvement of digital finance infrastructure, bolster policies and financial support for enterprise green technology research and development (R&D) investment, and effectively foster the improvement of corporate green technology innovation capabilities.
