Research on the Impact of Digital Inclusive Finance on International Logistics

Abstract

In the context of the deep integration of digital economy and global economy, enterprise internationalization has become a key path for enterprises to expand development space and enhance global competitiveness, while digital inclusive finance, relying on digital technology, has gradually become an important force in optimizing financial resource allocation and serving entity enterprises. This paper focuses on the impact of digital inclusive finance on the degree of enterprise internationalization, and explores the internal logic and practical path of this impact through theoretical analysis, mechanism deduction and multi-dimensional impact discussion. Based on theories such as financial development theory, resource-based view, information asymmetry theory and internationalization stage theory, the study holds that digital inclusive finance affects the degree of enterprise internationalization through four mechanisms: financing constraint mitigation effect, information acquisition optimization effect, risk management enhancement effect and technological innovation promotion effect. Specifically, digital inclusive finance promotes the expansion of enterprises' international market coverage, the deepening of international business participation and the diversification of internationalization models by reducing financing costs, improving information transparency, enhancing risk resistance and supporting technological innovation. However, the impact also shows heterogeneity due to differences in enterprise scale, industry attributes and regional digital infrastructure levels. Finally, the paper puts forward targeted suggestions for enterprises and governments to better utilize digital inclusive finance to promote the improvement of enterprise internationalization.
