Abstract

This study explores the role of financial support in the digital transformation of Chinese A-share-listed companies from 2001 to 2020. By utilizing the moderating effect model and threshold regression model, this study finds the following results: (1) Digital transformation positively impacts innovation, and the support of banking and capital markets further strengthens this impact. (2) With the development of banking and capital markets, the impact of digital transformation on innovation changes from negative to positive, which is also reflected in the subsamples of Eastern companies, small and medium-sized companies (SMEs), and non-SMEs. (3) The study reveals that only the capital market in the non-Eastern region has no threshold, and capital market support is effective only for non-SMEs when it reaches a higher level. These findings have important implications for policymakers in promoting digital transformation through financial support and help companies understand how to use financial support to improve competitiveness.
