Article Is electronic finance sustainable or not in the European Union? New insights from the panel vector autoregression approach(SpringerLink, 2022) Altınöz, Buket; Aslan, Alper; Atay Polat, Melike; Topalgokcelli, Emre; Esmeray, MuratAbstract Today, as a result of the developments and widespread use of information and communication technologies, the weight of online shopping in the economy has increased. The environmental impacts of this new order, which is an important part of electronic fnance, are discussed. In this study, the efect of electronic fnance, economic growth, renewable energy consumption, and urbanization on emissions in EU member countries is examined using the panel vector autoregression (PVAR) approach for the period from 2005 to 2018. The main results suggest that e-fnance has a positive and statistically signifcant efect on CO2 emissions. However, the renewable energy consumption-increasing efect of e-fnance is greater than its emission-reducing efect. Moreover, renewable energy consumption has a statistically insignifcant efect on emissions. Therefore, the contribution of e-fnance on environmental quality weakens. The requirement for EU member countries to prioritize the use of environmentally friendly energy to beneft from the environmental contribution of e-fnance in the most optimal way is stated as the main policy implication of this studyArticle The nexus among climate change, economic growth, foreign direct investments, and financial development: New evidence from N-11 countries(Environmental Progress and Sustainable Energy, 2021) Atay Polat, Melike; Aslan, Alper; Altınöz, BuketThe aim of this article is to investigate the relationship between air pollution, economic growth, energy use, trade openness, foreign direct investment, and financial development in N-11 countries data period from 1980 to 2018. For this purpose, it is adopted the Panel Vector Autoregression (PVAR) model for the estimation of the long and short-run effects. The results suggest that although energy consumption and financial development have a negative impact on CO2 emissions, foreign direct investment leads to an increase in pollution. In addition, there is bidirectional causality between financial development and CO2 emissions and energy use, carbon dioxide emissions and energy consumption, foreign direct investments and energy consumption, and financial development and energy consumption. In addition, there is unidirectional causality from carbon dioxide emissions to GDP, from energy consumption to GDP, from foreign direct investments to CO2 emissions and GDP, from financial development to GDP. Finally, impulse-response functions indicate the validity of the EKC hypothesis in these countries.
