Abstract
With rapid technological advancement, digital finance, facilitated by various digital technologies, has paved a novel trajectory for financial system reform and innovation, thereby playing a pivotal role in economic development. To comprehend the impact of digital finance on economic growth, this study evaluates the economic development and industrial composition of 30 Chinese regions. It constructs a regression model using the digital finance index as the independent variable. Empirical findings underscore the capacity of digital finance to propel high-quality development and emphasize the in-terrelation between the industry index and a moderating variable, namely Research and Development investment. Consequently, policymakers are urged to bolster digital in-frastructure, encourage innovative evolution of digital finance, and position digital finance as a critical enabler of optimizing high-quality development.
