Assessing the spatiotemporal financial inclusion and its determinants: a sub-national analysis of India
This paper assesses the variability in financial inclusion and its determinants for Indian states categorized by income groups and geographical regions for two periods: United Progressive Alliance (UPA) (2011–2012) and National Democratic Alliance (NDA) (2018–2019)-led political regimes. We found that the coefficient of variation (CV) for financial inclusion index increased from 0.893 to 0.910 during the two periods. In addition, across six major geographical regions of India, the southern region had the highest rank in the financial inclusion index, while the north-eastern region was the lowest in terms of financial inclusiveness during both periods. Interestingly, Gujarat (western) and Jammu–Kashmir (northern) showed substantial improvement in terms of the level of financial inclusion from 2011–2012 to 2018–2019. The estimated Tobit model regression results suggest that factors such as per capita GSDP, number of factories, and ease of doing business have a significant positive impact in accelerating financial inclusion in 2011–2012. While in 2018–2019, we found that along with these factors, per capita power consumption, length of national highways and length of railway routes are also positively significant in determining financial inclusion. This may arise because of the emphasis on the development of infrastructure and energy sectors during the NDA-led political regime. Therefore, the relevance of such policies to accelerate financial inclusiveness in the most deprived regions is reflected.
期刊介绍:
The Asia-Pacific Journal of Regional Science expands the frontiers of regional science through the diffusion of intrinsically developed and advanced modern, regional science methodologies throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Articles published in the journal foster progress and development of regional science through the promotion of comprehensive and interdisciplinary academic studies in relationship to research in regional science across the globe. The journal’s scope includes articles dedicated to theoretical economics, positive economics including econometrics and statistical analysis and input–output analysis, CGE, Simulation, applied economics including international economics, regional economics, industrial organization, analysis of governance and institutional issues, law and economics, migration and labor markets, spatial economics, land economics, urban economics, agricultural economics, environmental economics, behavioral economics and spatial analysis with GIS/RS data education economics, sociology including urban sociology, rural sociology, environmental sociology and educational sociology, as well as traffic engineering. The journal provides a unique platform for its research community to further develop, analyze, and resolve urgent regional and urban issues in Asia, and to further refine established research around the world in this multidisciplinary field. The journal invites original articles, proposals, and book reviews.The Asia-Pacific Journal of Regional Science is a new English-language journal that spun out of Chiikigakukenkyuu, which has a 45-year history of publishing the best Japanese research in regional science in the Japanese language and, more recently and more frequently, in English. The development of regional science as an international discipline has necessitated the need for a new publication in English. The Asia-Pacific Journal of Regional Science is a publishing vehicle for English-language contributions to the field in Japan, across the complete Asia-Pacific arena, and beyond.Content published in this journal is peer reviewed (Double Blind).
