Abstract

This paper develops a multidimensional framework composed of resistance ability, recovery ability and transition ability to measure the resilience of households involved in financial markets, and then discusses the impact of digital inclusive finance. Taking Chinese households holding financial assets as the research sample, we unveil that the majority of households display low financial resilience and there are great differences among them. We also discover that the development of digital inclusive finance has positive influence on household financial resilience, and the use of online financial services has a mediating effect.
