Abstract
Based on panel data of 108 cities in China's Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2003 to 2019, a multiple mediation model is used in this study to assess the impact and mechanism of financial development on new urbanization. The main conclusions are that financial development can directly promote the improvement of new urbanization and indirectly improve the level of new urbanization by increasing infrastructure investment, optimizing industrial structure, and enhancing human capital. Further, the financial development of middle-upstream cities has a stronger promoting effect on new urbanization. Whereas the financial development of downstream cities mainly promotes the construction of new urbanization through both infrastructure investment and industrial structure optimization, middle-upstream cities rely more solely on infrastructure investment.
