Abstract
Sci-tech finance mainly refers to integrating the technology and financial industries, which belong to industrial finance. The world is seeing a considerably high degree of integration of technological industries in the era of the digital economy, which is beneficial for sci-tech finance to innovate and boost with the application of developing technologies like AI, cloud computing, quantum computing, blockchain, and big data. Sci-tech finance is instrumental in enhancing innovation and entrepreneurship, providing a new driving force for the tremendous enhancement of the regional economy in China. For the sake of quantifying the development level of sci-tech finance for Anhui province, this paper firstly calculates sci-tech finance indexes for 16 prefectural-level municipalities in Anhui province by using a factor model based on seven indicators covering three aspects: sci-tech finance input, sci-tech finance output and loan-level for financial institutions. Secondly, the clustering model analyzes each city’s development level category based on a comprehensive index of sci-tech finance.
