Does financial development mitigate carbon emissions? Evidence from heterogeneous financial economies
Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the impact of financial market development on carbon emission intensity, taking into account the various stages of financial development among countries. Utilising the instrumental variable generalised method of moment approach and a comprehensive panel dataset of a total of 83 countries over the period 1980–2015, we show that the overall financial market development and its sub-measures such as financial market depth and efficiency reduce carbon emission intensity in the developed and emerging financial economies. However, an opposing effect is found in the frontier financial economies. For standalone financial economies, the results show that the overall financial market development and its sub-indicators have no direct impact on carbon emission intensity. Finally, the non-linear and the moderating effects of financial market development on carbon emission intensity differ across countries at different stages of financial development. The policy implications are also discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
