Literature Reviw
The article refers to various studies and frameworks, including:
1: STIRPAT Model: Used to assess environmental impacts
considering population, affluence, and technology.
2: Mediating Role of Green Finance: The study builds on the
existing literature to examine the unexplored area of green
credit and green investment as mediators between fintech
and environmental sustainability.
3: Fintech Innovations and Green Finance: Previous research, such
as Nenavath (2022), Chen and Volz (2021), and others, is
referenced to explore how fintech supports green finance.

Literature Reviw
The emergence of fintech represents a disruptive innovation in
financial services, challenging traditional banking models
(Christensen et al., 2015). Technological advancements have
enabled fintech firms to provide accessible, efficient, and
personalized services, reshaping customer expectations
(Nicoletti, 2017; PWC, 2016). Regulatory changes post-2008 have
facilitated fintech growth while constraining traditional banks
(Stein et al., 2012). Additionally, fintech's focus on niche markets
promotes financial inclusion and empowers consumers (Mills & McCarthy,
2016).
As a result, traditional banks are compelled to innovate and adapt to retain
market share in this evolving landscape (KPMG, 2015; McKinsey, 2015).

Literature Reviw
The literature on credit markets emphasizes information asymmetry as a
key distortion, where Stiglitz and Weiss (1981) highlight its role in credit
rationing, and other studies (Brito and Hartley, 1995; Parlour and Rajan,
2001) focus on transaction costs and imperfect competition. Recent work
examines FinTech's role in mitigating these frictions through advanced
screening technologies like machine learning and alternative data (Fuster et
al., 2020; Berg et al., 2020). Peer-to-peer (P2P) lending research, including
studies by Duarte, Siegel, and Young (2012) and Tang (2019), explores how
platforms like Prosper integrate into credit markets. Finally, the literature on
financial innovation (Boot and Thakor, 1997; Gehrig, 1998) shows how
technology improves borrower screening, with this paper extending the
discussion to include information spillovers between FinTech and traditional
banks, enhancing credit access.

Literature Reviw

in SCF and Fintech innovations.

Literature Reviw
FinTech and Traditional Banking: Previous studies indicate that FinTech
firms
provide lower interest rates compared to traditional banks, enhancing
supplier profitability (Judith Hurwitz & Daniel Kirsch, 2018).
ARIMA Model in Financial Forecasting: The use of ARIMA models in
predicting
time series data is well-established in econometrics, particularly for large
datasets (Adhikari & R. K. Agrawal, 2013).
Market Dynamics: The frictional theory of profits suggests that technological
advancements disrupt traditional market dynamics, influencing supply and
demand conditions.

Methodology
The methodology would likely follow the steps outlined in the
introduction:
Data Source: The study uses application-level data from Prosper
Marketplace, a U.S.
peer-to-peer lending platform. The sample period spans from 2011 to
2017, and
borrowers include consumers with near-prime or better credit scores.
Regression Analysis: Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regressions
are used to estimate the
effect of P2P loan approval on bank credit access. The dependent
variable is revolving
credit limits (e.g., credit card limits), and the key independent variable
is whether or not
the consumer obtained a P2P loan.
Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD): The study exploits a
natural threshold in Prosper's
lending model, where a loan is approved only if it is 70% funded by
investors. The
discontinuity in approval rates at this threshold is used to identify the
causal effect of
FinTech lending on subsequent bank credit access.
Additional Tests: The study includes several robustness checks,
such as a "donut RDD" to
account for potential manipulation at the 70% funding threshold, and
partial identification
methods to bound the potential bias in the results.

Methodology
Qualitative Analysis: Evaluation of regulatory practices,
consumer protection frameworks, and fintech innovations.
Comparative Analysis: Examination of international regulatory
approaches and their outcomes.

Methodology
Bibliometric Analysis: Systematic review of literature to identify
trends
and key contributors.
Two-Round Survey: Semi-structured interviews conducted online to
gather insights from scholars.

Methodology
Quantitative Approach: Utilization of the Auto ARIMA model to
analyze
time series data related to trade values.
Data Preparation: Aggregation of trade data to focus on top
countries,
chronological splitting into training and testing datasets, and
performance
evaluation using RMSE.
Analysis: Graphical representation of data and performance metrics
to
interpret results against the stated hypotheses.

The conclusion would summarize the following key findings:
Positive Effect of FinTech Lending on Bank Credit: Consumers who
obtain a P2P loan experience an increase in bank credit access, with
revolving credit limits increasing by up to $1,770.
Information Spillovers as a Mechanism: The study supports the
hypothesis that banks view FinTech loans as a positive signal of
creditworthiness, particularly when FinTech lenders use additional soft
information (e.g., gender, race) in their screening processes.
Complementarity of P2P Loans and Bank Credit: The results indicate
that P2P credit and bank credit complement each other rather than
leading to overborrowing. This is particularly evident among marginally
funded
borrowers who do not reduce their revolving debt but still receive more
bank credit.
Policy Implications: The findings suggest that concerns about lax
screening by FinTech lenders may be overstated. Instead, FinTech
lending appears to facilitate consumer access to credit and has the
potential to complement traditional bank lending.

Conclusion
A flexible, adaptive, and coordinated regulatory approach is essential for
fostering fintech innovation in Canada while mitigating associated risks.
Regulatory sandboxes and international cooperation are recommended
for
better integration of blockchain technologies.

Conclusion
The study identifies five key research directions for SCF in the context of
Fintech. Emphasizes the need for firms to enhance operational capacities
to
meet investor concerns and the importance of innovative financing
products
for SMEs.

Conclusion
FinTech plays a significant role in reducing interest costs, positively
impacting
supplier profitability. However, its influence on liquidity is limited, indicating
a
gap in market penetration compared to traditional banks. The findings
suggest
that while FinTech has potential, more work is needed to enhance its
liquidity
offerings.
Future Directions
The study highlights several limitations and directions for future
research:
1: Due to the nonavailability of high-frequency data, future studies could
apply different econometric tests.
2: More variables could be included in green financing beyond green
credit
and green investment.
3: Future research could explore a five-factor-based green
environmental
index and investigate other significant determinants of fintech.

Future Directions
The future direction of fintech will focus on further disruption of
traditional
banking, driven by client-centric services, digital innovation, and
cybersecurity advancements. Fintech will expand globally, increasing
financial inclusion by offering services to underbanked populations.
Emerging
technologies like blockchain, AI, and machine learning will be integrated
into
financial products, enhancing transparency, efficiency, and security.
Regulatory
frameworks will shape new innovations, and collaboration with traditional
banks may lead to hybrid models. Data-driven financial services will
enable
personalized, predictive solutions, while specialized fintech firms will
target
niche markets with new business models. The overall trend points
towards a
more accessible, secure, and technologically advanced financial
ecosystem.

Future Directions
The paper’s future directions may include the following suggestions:
Cross-country Comparisons: Future research could explore whether
the effects
of FinTech lending on bank credit access are similar in other countries
with
different regulatory frameworks or banking systems.
Long-term Impact on Default Rates: While the current study finds no
evidence
of increased delinquencies, future research could investigate the long-
term
default rates of borrowers who obtain both P2P and bank loans.
Impact of Evolving FinTech Technologies: As machine learning and
alternative
data sources continue to evolve, future research could explore how
these
advancements impact borrower screening and credit access over time.

Future Directions
Further research is needed to explore the
influence of blockchain on the economy and
governance in Canada, as well as broader
implications of emerging technologies on
public policy and national security.

Future Directions
1: Continuous literature updates as supply chain operations and Fintech
evolve.
2: Empirical validation of the relationship between operational capacities
and investment elements.
3: Exploration of new theories and methodologies to adapt to changing
supply chain dynamics.

Future Directions
1: Further research should explore the integration of AI and blockchain
technologies in optimizing supply chain financing.
2: Investigation of the regulatory frameworks needed to support FinTech
growth in international trade.
3: Detailed studies on customer behavior regarding the choice between
FinTech and traditional banking solutions.
