Abstract

This paper uses data from Chinese prefecture-level cities from 2007 to 2023 to examine the relationships among low-carbon city policies (LCCPs), digital finance, and the high-quality development of regional tourism (THQD). Results show a significant positive correlation between LCCP and THQD, with stronger effects in regions under stricter environmental regulation. Digital finance also mediates the relationship between LCCP and THQD, and this mediating role varies across regions with different levels of openness.These findings not only enrich the theoretical understanding of the policy-driven pathways for sustainable tourism transformation but also provide practical insights for policymakers to design differentiated and region-specific strategies that leverage both environmental governance and financial digitalization to promote high-quality tourism development.

低碳城市政策、数字金融、高质量区域旅游

本文利用2007 - 2023年中国地级市的数据，考察了低碳城市政策、数字金融与区域旅游高质量发展之间的关系。结果表明，LCCP与THQD呈显著正相关，且在环境监管较为严格的地区影响更强。数字金融也在LCCP与THQD之间起到中介作用，且这种中介作用在不同开放程度的地区有所差异。这些发现不仅丰富了对可持续旅游转型政策驱动路径的理论认识，而且为政策制定者设计差异化和区域特色战略提供了实践见解，这些战略将利用环境治理和金融数字化来促进高质量的旅游发展。
