Assessing Environmental Resources and Sustainable Governance: Policy Interactions and Financial Innovations in Emerging Economies

Global trading systems become increasingly complex and ecological issues increase, ensuring equitable access to governance of natural resources becomes ever more challenging. Robust administration and efficient finance systems are crucial for the sustainable administration of natural resources. This research examines the influence of natural resources, financial variation, sustainable finance, and FinTech on ecological sustainability. It also discusses how efficient administration mitigates these consequences. The research utilizes imbalanced panel data from 18 economies spanning the period from 2012 to 2021, employing a FcQA and econometric approach that integrates comparative evaluation. The findings reveal that while green finance supports ecological assets, FinTech and digital engagement initially have negative effects. However, strong governance mitigates these impacts and improves outcomes. Effective administration interacts with financial and technological factors to enhance resource management, underscoring the need for policy reforms and offering practical guidance for sustainable governance. Moreover, the intensity and orientation of association impacts (e.g., FinTech × GGOV, GFIN × GGOV) remain stable throughout modeling modifications, underscoring that robust administration enhances the ecological advantages of economic and technical breakthroughs. These robustness tests indicate that our results are not merely a product of particular model selections, and offer compelling evidence that leadership quality is a significant mediator in the association between economic innovations and ecological resilience in developing nations.
