Abstract

With the evolving world order, countries are using financial technologies (Fintech) to access financial resources more effectively, and Fintech can have an impact on the environment. This study aims to investigate the influence of Fintech on ecological sustainability, focusing on the contribution of renewable energy (RE) and government effectiveness (GE) under the Load Capacity Curve (LCC). This research analyzes data from 69 middle-income economies between 2006 and 2022 using the dynamic panel threshold model (DPTR). The outcomes document that GDP reduces the LCF below a certain threshold, but a positive impact above this threshold. Specifically, the model yielded a threshold value of $US 5222.234, which is higher than the average GDP of $US 4276.802. This finding suggests a U-shaped relationship between GDP and LCF, which supports the LCC hypothesis. The outcome also reports that Fintech plays a crucial role in improving ecological sustainability, while government effectiveness has a negative effect. The study emphasizes that middle-income countries should support Fintech and renewable energy along development with economic progress to improve ecological quality.

从全球视角审视负载能力曲线：金融科技、政府效率和可再生能源的作用

随着世界秩序的不断发展，各国正在利用金融技术（Fintech）更有效地获取金融资源，而金融技术可能会对环境产生影响。本研究旨在探究金融科技对生态可持续性的影响，重点关注负载能力曲线（LCC）下可再生能源（RE）和政府效能（GE）的贡献。本研究使用动态面板阈值模型（DPTR）分析了 2006 年至 2022 年间 69 个中等收入经济体的数据。研究结果表明，GDP 在低于某一阈值时会降低 LCF，但在该阈值之上则会产生积极影响。具体而言，该模型得出的阈值为 5222.234 美元，高于 4276.802 美元的平均 GDP。研究结果还指出，金融科技在改善生态可持续性方面发挥了关键作用，而政府效能则产生了负面影响。研究强调，中等收入国家在发展经济的同时，应支持金融科技和可再生能源，以改善生态质量。

期刊介绍： Gondwana Research (GR) is an International Journal aimed to promote high quality research publications on all topics related to solid Earth, particularly with reference to the origin and evolution of continents, continental assemblies and their resources. GR is an "all earth science" journal with no restrictions on geological time, terrane or theme and covers a wide spectrum of topics in geosciences such as geology, geomorphology, palaeontology, structure, petrology, geochemistry, stable isotopes, geochronology, economic geology, exploration geology, engineering geology, geophysics, and environmental geology among other themes, and provides an appropriate forum to integrate studies from different disciplines and different terrains. In addition to regular articles and thematic issues, the journal invites high profile state-of-the-art reviews on thrust area topics for its column, ''GR FOCUS''. Focus articles include short biographies and photographs of the authors. Short articles (within ten printed pages) for rapid publication reporting important discoveries or innovative models of global interest will be considered under the category ''GR LETTERS''.
