On the basis of a theoretical analysis, this paper develops an indicator framework for measuring informatization level and estimates the informatization levels of various regions in China spanning 2006 to 2019; Utilizing the DEA-Malmquist index approach, the paper estimates the TFP of various regions in China and decomposes it into technological progress and technical efficiency. The findings reveal an annually increasing level of informatization in China, with higher presence in the east and lower in the west. The influence of informatization on TFP presents a positive "U" -shaped feature, but the turning point of the eastern region is earlier than that in the central and western regions. The level of informatization also has a spatial spillover effect on TFP, similarly presenting a positive "U" shape. The article offers pertinent policy suggestions aiming to promote China's TFP through informatization.

The main objective of this study is to test the impacts of lending by various types of financial institutions on poverty, employment, and new business startups. The study is based on seven equations estimated through the ordinary least squares (OLS) technique and censored TOBIT equations. These estimations are based on 21 years of data from 3114 financial institutions. Empirical pieces of evidence based on firm-level data reveal that the donations in the formation of the equities of lending institutions are a significant determinant of lending to clients below the poverty line. It was observed that commercial banks provide more lending for hiring labor than other lending institutions. This conclusion emphasizes the importance of commercial banks for the transfer of fiscal resources to the middle- and lower-income groups. The study recognizes the importance of financial institutions in the South Asian context.

This empirical study examines the dynamic connectedness between global geopolitical tension (GPR) and the flow of foreign remittances (FR) in response to evolving global and strategic economic dynamics. The study employs the NARDL estimation model to assess the symmetric and asymmetric connectedness among key indicators influencing economic changes in BRIC economies. The study used quarterly frequency data from 1998 to 2023. The short run results reveal that GPR exhibits a symmetric relationship with the flow of FR across the BRIC economies. However, in the long run, an asymmetric association between GPR and the flow of FR is observed. These findings underscore the importance for policymakers, migrants, and recipients to consider the asymmetric and volatile nature of global geopolitical tension when formulating policies and making decisions regarding remittance transfers. Such insights contribute to more informed decision-making processes and effective policy interventions in the realm of remittance flows.

Technological advancements in the financial sector are widely recognized as transformative for global trade and supply chains, significantly improving access to financial services while enhancing the security, efficiency, transparency, and flexibility of transactions between exporters and importers. In this context, the present study investigates the role of financial technology (fintech) in promoting international trade. Drawing on both theoretical and empirical frameworks that link trade and finance, the research explores how fintech innovations reduce trade costs and, in turn, enhance the gains from trade. By estimating a theory-consistent gravity model based on bilateral trade flows from 106 countries over the period 2014–2019, the study reveals that fintech innovations disproportionately stimulate international trade compared to domestic trade. These findings highlight the critical role of fintech in lowering trade barriers and suggest that policies promoting fintech development—such as those fostering innovation in blockchain, payment systems, and financial services—are essential to strengthening global trade competitiveness.

This study investigates the dynamic and asymmetric return connectedness between fossil energies and stock markets of the Belt and Road countries (the B&R stock markets) under shocks from extreme events from 2019 to 2023 by using the time-varying parameter vector autoregression model (TVP-VAR) with the asymmetric connectedness indicator and multilayer spillover networks. We find that: (i) risk spillover between fossil energies and the B&R stock markets is more sensitive to negative information than positive information, and the asymmetry is much larger during periods with exogenous shocks. (ii) The level of risk spillover has significantly increased after the outbreak of extreme events, and the global shock from the COVID-19 pandemic has more widespread and greater impact on the risk spillover than the geopolitical shock from the Russo-Ukrainian war. (iii) fossil energies perform as risk receivers throughout the full sample period, and risks are primarily transferred from high-income countries to low-income countries within the B&R stock markets, this phenomenon is also intensified by the extreme shocks. Our findings provide valuable guidance and have economic implications for both investors and policymakers worldwide to diversify and manage the risks within the global fossil energy market and the B&R stock markets.

By facilitating wider communication networks and improving the performance of their affiliated businesses in complex environments, businesses can increase their competitiveness. Understanding the characteristics and diversity of business groups is necessary for developing and implementing them. In this study, we examined the question of how business groups can be classified. What criteria can be used to separate them? We conducted a qualitative analysis of the content of 48 scientific journals published between 1999 and 2020 and selected 215 articles based on purposive sampling during two stages of screening. As a result of the content analysis, three main themes were identified: “origins of group control and ownership”, “groups' institutional origins”, and “intergroup relations”. Also, at the first subtheme level, six categories were identified: group control level, group ownership type, diversity of group relations, dependence and cooperation level, relationship structure, and institutional contexts. There are 12 subcategories included in the second-level subthemes. “origin of corporate governance”, “type of group ownership”, “type of institutional contexts”, “intra-group diversification”, “extra-group diversification”, “internal cooperation”, “formalization ratio”, “length of relations”, “external cooperation”, “geographical area”, “depth of cooperation”, “group maturity level”. Lastly, axis factors related to the diversity of business groups were used to develop a set of typologies.

This paper examines the effect of foreign firm characteristics on FDI spillovers in Namibia, with a specific focus on gender spillover, as an additional measure to total labour spillover. Also, the possible differing spillovers in the manufacturing and services firms are investigated. Using data from the World Bank Enterprise Survey for 2006 and 2014, the paper finds that the gender spillover is significantly influenced by four variables; sector, firm age, transport challenges, and supply-chain finance. Relative to the services sector, firms in the manufacturing sector are found to significantly drive gender spillovers due to a probable preference for females “nimble fingers”, perceived obedience, and lower wages. However, the paper documents that older firms, especially those in the manufacturing sector, negatively impact gender spillovers. Also, transport challenges are shown to drive gender spillovers. This result arises from the possibility that they impose an opportunity cost, whereby, firms may defer investing in female labour due to lower perceived wages to compensate for high transport costs. Finally, we document a negative influence of supply-chain finance on gender spillovers, arising from possible labour cuts as MNCs outsource jobs in the supply chain.

Participation in global value chains (GVC) is increasingly seen in recent years as the new development challenge by policymakers in many countries. The COVID-19 pandemic recently revealed to the public eye that logistics capabilities are the backbone of the country's competitiveness within the GVC. Nevertheless, studies on logistics performance and GVC are still lacking until today. This paper aims to investigate the role of national institutional quality in the logistics performance-GVC participation nexus, using 68 countries covering 2005 through 2021. The findings of the present study reveal that (a) logistics performance has a positive and significant impact on GVC participation, (b) improving the overall level of governance has a positive impact on GVC participation, (c) the quality of national institutions plays a significant moderating role in logistics performance and GVC participation nexus, (d) the impact of logistics performance on forward linkage, under high governance countries is greater than under low governance countries and (e) the backward linkage is much more sensitive to the time and cost control related to cross boarder and document compliance in countries with poor governance than in countries with good governance.

Financial technology has propelled India's financial sector to international acclaim. The rise of the digital economy has played a crucial role in fueling the nation's ongoing economic growth and prosperity. Using the CRITIC approach, this report thoroughly analyses FinTech and digital economy metrics in all 28 states of India from 2010 to 2022. A thorough analysis of this data uncovers the complex relationships and interactions between FinTech and the digital economy. The findings clearly demonstrate the significant impact of FinTech on India's digital economy. One important result of this impact is the progress of technological advancements, along with a decrease in the financial independence of local governments. In addition, the study reveals a fascinating finding: the influence of FinTech on the growth of the digital economy is enhanced by the existence of local financial regulatory mechanisms. By strengthening regulatory resources, FinTech plays a crucial role in promoting the development of the digital economy, especially in economically advanced regions. This research utilizes a cutting-edge methodology to unravel these intricate phenomena, providing new perspectives on the interaction between FinTech and the digital economy.
