Abstract

In recent years, fintech advancements have influenced global coal trade patterns. This study analyzes the impact of fintech on coal trade across 80 countries from 2012 to 2019. Findings from the MGARDL model reveal that increased fintech activity reduces coal imports while boosting exports, suggesting enhanced trade efficiency and access to capital. Income inequality and private infrastructure investment negatively impact coal trade, likely due to restricted financial access and infrastructure limitations. Meanwhile, ICT development supports coal trade by streamlining logistics and finance. The study confirms a bidirectional relationship between fintech and coal trade, emphasizing mutual influence. Policy recommendations include promoting fintech adoption, encouraging sustainable investments, improving financial access, and expanding ICT infrastructure to foster a more sustainable coal trade.

金融市场数字化与绿色煤炭贸易

近年来，金融科技的进步影响了全球煤炭贸易模式。本研究分析了 2012 年至 2019 年金融科技对 80 个国家煤炭贸易的影响。MGARDL模型的研究结果表明，金融科技活动的增加减少了煤炭进口，同时促进了出口，这表明贸易效率和资本获取能力得到了提高。收入不平等和私人基础设施投资对煤炭贸易产生了负面影响，这可能是由于金融准入受限和基础设施限制造成的。同时，信息和通信技术的发展通过简化物流和金融来支持煤炭贸易。研究证实了金融科技与煤炭贸易之间的双向关系，强调了二者之间的相互影响。政策建议包括促进金融科技的应用、鼓励可持续投资、改善金融准入、扩大信息和通信技术基础设施，以促进更可持续的煤炭贸易。
