摘要
This paper examines regional financial efficiency and economic development in China. We find significant differences in financial efficiency among the eastern, central, and western regions of China and a non-linear relationship between financial efficiency and economic growth. We find that financial efficiency promotes economic growth only when it reaches a certain level (financial threshold). It increases capacity for the accumulation and allocation of financial resources where it exceeds the threshold. Rapid inancial development can provide a superior financial environment and improved conditions for economic growth to promote the continuous improvement of the Chinese economy.
