Öz

Ekonomik faaliyetlerin neden olduğu ekolojik kaygı tüm dünyanın ortak sorunudur. İnsani gelişme yanında sürdürülebilir çevre de sürdürülebilir kalkınma hedeflerindendir. Çevreyle ilgili kaygılar finansal yönetim ile teknolojiyi bir araya getirmiş ve dijital dönüşüm yaratmıştır. Hızla yaygınlaşan finansal teknolojiler (fintek) sürdürülebilir kalkınmanın temel dinamiklerinden biri haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışma 19 G20 üyesi ülkeye yönelik fintek ile ekolojik bozulma arasındaki bağlantıyı kaynak verimliliği perspektifinde anlamaya odaklanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda kantil regresyon ve dinamik regresyon modellerinden yararlanılmıştır.  Kantiller arasındaki marjinal etkileri ölçebilen MMQR ile elde edilen sonuçların sağlamlık kontrollerinde dinamik etkileri ölçebilen Sistem-GMM tahmincisi kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular G20 ülkelerinde fintekin kaynak verimliliği kanalıyla ekolojik açıkları anlamlı bir şekilde giderdiğine işaret etmektedir. Ayrıca bu ülkelerdeki hızlı gelir artışı ve ticaret ekolojik ayak izini artırarak çevre tahribatına neden olmaktaktadır. Bu bulgular ışığında G20 ülkelerinin dijital dönüşüme entegrasyonu ekolojik kaygılardan kurtulmanın anahtarı gibi görülmektedir. Ekonomik ilerleme ve ticarete entegre edilen fintek yeşil finansman desteğiyle kaynak verimliliği perspektifinde sürdürülebilir bir ekolojinin kilidini açacaktır.
