Abstract

In the digital economy era, the link between digital finance and green technology innovation is crucial yet under-explored. This study investigates how digital finance influences green technology innovation in China's manufacturing sector, analyzing A-share listed companies from 2013 to 2022. Findings indicate that digital finance directly enhances green innovation and helps enterprises overcome financing constraints by providing alternative funding sources. It also boosts R&D investment, further fostering green innovation. Moreover, corporate ESG performance significantly impacts this relationship, with stronger effects observed in state-owned, non-heavy polluting, and non-high-tech enterprises. These insights suggest that digital finance can be a catalyst for sustainable technological advancement.
