| Complementary and substitution effects of digital finance and green finance on corporate green innovation By Tan, Sijin; Tao, Shigui. Scientific Reports (Nature Publisher Group); London Vol. 16, Iss. 1, (2026): 9421. DOI:10.1038/s41598-026-39152-9 Abstract :Against the backdrop of the “dual-carbon” goals, traditional financial models are unable to meet the urgent demands of green economic development. The coordinated development of digital finance and green finance has become a critical issue of the times. Existing research has focused more on the independent impacts of digital finance and green finance, while paying insufficient attention to their interactive effects and underlying mechanisms. Therefore, this study examines the green innovation incentive effects of digital finance and green finance, as well as their interactive relationship and underlying mechanisms, by constructing a two-way fixed effects model and applying Logit and Poisson nonlinear models. The analysis is based on data from Chinese A-share listed companies from 2011 to 2023. Research indicates that digital finance and green finance exhibit a stronger substitution effect than a complementary effect in incentivizing strategic green innovation. After testing the nonlinear model, the aforementioned conclusions remain valid. The substitution effect between digital finance and green finance is primarily concentrated in non-high-tech industries, heavily polluting industries, non-state-owned enterprises, and lower-tier cities. When corporate financing constraints are weaker, the substitution effect between digital finance and green finance becomes more pronounced. The stronger a company’s technological absorption capacity, the weaker the substitution effect between digital finance and green finance becomes. The conclusion provides empirical evidence and decision-making support for leveraging diverse financial models to promote green development and sustainable growth. | |||
| Artificial intelligence and ESG performance in the German banking sector through green finance By Sohail, Mariam; Zakaria, Shahsuzan; Sheraz, Faisal; Sibghatullah, Amena. Discover Sustainability; Hamburg Vol. 7, Iss. 1, (Dec 2026): 1383. DOI:10.1007/s43621-026-03794-6 Abstract :Artificial intelligence (AI) in finance has become a breakthrough in sustainable finance development and improvement of environmental, social, and governance (ESG). Although of increasing interest, the processes by which AI relates to green finance to affect ESG performance are understudied, especially in institutionalized banking settings. | |||
| Research on the Impact of Green Finance on the Realization of the Value of Ecological Products—An Empirical Study from 30 Provinces in China By Han Jiafang; Zhang, Yang; Ye Xiaoya; Song, Xiaoxiao; Wu, Chengliang Sustainability; Basel Vol. 18, Iss. 18, (2026): 9491. DOI:10.3390/su18189491 Abstract :Using panel data from 30 Chinese provinces for the 2011–2024 period, this study empirically analyzes the impact of green finance on the realization of the value of ecological products, as well as the mediating mechanism and spillover effect of green finance. The results show that: (1) Green finance has a positive association with the realization of the value of ecological products. Specifically, for every one standard deviation increase in green finance, the realization of the value of ecological products increases by about 2.77%. (2) The mediating effect reveals that green technology innovation acts as a mediating channel in the relationship between green finance and the realization of the value of ecological products. The indirect effect is 0.1012, and the Bootstrap 95% confidence interval excludes zero. (3) Heterogeneity analysis, based on the interaction coefficient, indicates that a positive relationship between green finance and the realization of the value of ecological products is more obvious in the central region and western region, and in regions with higher levels of ecological industrialization development. (4) A spatial correlation exists in the realization of the value of ecological products. Furthermore, under both the inverse distance square matrix and spatial adjacency matrix, the direct effect of green finance is negative, indicating that green finance may weaken the realization of the value of ecological products in local regions. However, green finance generates positive spillover effects, suggesting that it can exert a favorable influence on the realization of the value of ecological products in adjacent regions. | |||
