Abstract

This paper uses data on Chinese A-share listed firms from 2012 to 2023 to investigate the impact of FinTech on corporate economic value added EVA. The results show that FinTech significantly and positively promotes corporate EVA, and this conclusion remains valid after robustness tests. Mechanism analysis indicates that total factor productivity and new-quality productivity play partial mediating roles between them. Heterogeneity analysis shows that the promotion effect is more significant in firms without general defects, non-state-owned enterprises, and labor-intensive industries. This study provides practical implications for corporate digital transformation and the optimization of FinTech policies.
