Mingzhao Xiong, Jingjing Fan, Wenqi Li, Brian Teo Sheng Xian · 2022 · Frontiers in Environmental Science

Summary. Digital inclusive finance in China promotes rural revitalization by expanding economic growth and reducing urban-rural income gaps. The effect varies by region, with stronger impacts in eastern and central provinces than western areas. Coverage breadth and usage depth drive revitalization, while digitalization shows a U-shaped relationship. A threshold effect exists: below certain levels, digital finance facilitates revitalization; above thresholds, effects strengthen significantly.
