摘要

目前,关于普惠金融对经济增长、不平等和贫困等社会经济成果的影响,已有广泛的实证研究。然而,有关普惠金融与人口健康的研究却十分有限,而且仍处于起步阶段。因此,本文通过使用 2004 年至 2020 年间 121 个国家的全球面板数据集,探究普惠金融对健康的影响,以补充相关知识。在使用基于异方差的工具变量回归和横截面依赖性的 Driscol-Kraay 估计器考虑内生性因素后,我们发现普惠金融改善了人口的健康状况。我们发现,普惠金融对人口健康结果的影响还取决于一个国家的信息和通信技术渗透水平以及现有的社会经济条件。因此,我们发现,在收入不平等程度较低、人均国内生产总值较高、移动和互联网普及率较高的国家,普惠金融能改善人口健康状况。我们还发现,不同地理区域和收入群体的结果存在异质性。根据这些发现,我们认为普惠金融政策可以提高人口健康水平。

Does Financial Inclusion Matter to Population Health? Insight From a Global Dataset

Currently, extensive empirical studies exist on the impact of financial inclusion on socio-economic outcomes such as economic growth, inequality, and poverty. However, research on financial inclusion and population health is limited and still at the infant stage. Therefore, this article adds to knowledge by inquiring into the health implications of financial inclusion using a global panel dataset for 121 countries between 2004 and 2020. After accounting for endogeneity with heteroskedasticity-based instrumental variable regression and cross-sectional dependency with the Driscol–Kraay estimator, we documented that financial inclusion improves population health outcomes. We found that the effect of financial inclusion on population health outcomes also depends on the level of information and communication technology penetration and existing socio-economic conditions in a country. Following this, we showed that financial inclusion improves population health outcomes in countries with lower income inequality and higher GDP per capita, mobile and internet penetration. We further found heterogeneity in the results across geographical regions and income groups. Following these findings, we suggest that financial inclusion policies could enhance population health.

期刊介绍: Since its foundation in 1974, Social Indicators Research has become the leading journal on problems related to the measurement of all aspects of the quality of life. The journal continues to publish results of research on all aspects of the quality of life and includes studies that reflect developments in the field. It devotes special attention to studies on such topics as sustainability of quality of life, sustainable development, and the relationship between quality of life and sustainability. The topics represented in the journal cover and involve a variety of segmentations, such as social groups, spatial and temporal coordinates, population composition, and life domains. The journal presents empirical, philosophical and methodological studies that cover the entire spectrum of society and are devoted to giving evidences through indicators. It considers indicators in their different typologies, and gives special attention to indicators that are able to meet the need of understanding social realities and phenomena that are increasingly more complex, interrelated, interacted and dynamical. In addition, it presents studies aimed at defining new approaches in constructing indicators.
