| dc.description | En los últimos años, el rápido crecimiento de la tecnología financiera (FinTech) ha transformado significativamente el sector de servicios financieros, con inversiones globales que superaron los 115 mil millones de dólares en 2021. FinTech ha ganado relevancia por su papel en la diversificación de carteras, su accesibilidad y su contribución a los objetivos ESG (Ambientales, Sociales y de Gobernanza). No obstante, las acciones FinTech son altamente volátiles y susceptibles a efectos de contagio, observados en distintos tipos de activos, como criptomonedas y mercados tradicionales. A pesar del potencial de FinTech para mejorar la eficiencia del sistema financiero y fomentar la sostenibilidad ambiental, existe debate sobre si actúa como transmisor o receptor de volatilidad. Además, la relación entre FinTech y los criterios ESG —especialmente en mercados emergentes— aún está poco explorada. Este estudio analiza los derrames de volatilidad entre FinTech, acciones ESG (de mercados desarrollados y emergentes), criptomonedas y activos alternativos naturales (como el agua y la madera) durante el periodo 2019-2024. Utiliza la metodología de Antonakakis et al. (2020) para examinar la conectividad dinámica entre estos activos y evaluar su utilidad en estrategias de cobertura y gestión de riesgos. El estudio busca cubrir vacíos en la literatura sobre mercados emergentes y el papel del capital natural en la inversión sostenible. | |
| dc.description.abstract | The rapid growth of financial technology (FinTech) and the increasing emphasis on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria have emerged as two defining trends in global financial markets. This study explores volatility spillovers among FinTech firms, ESG companies (in developed and emerging markets), cryptocurrencies, and natural alternative assets. It uses daily data from 2019 to 2014. Using a time-varying framework, it finds that FinTech and developed market ESG firms are major transmitters of volatility, especially during global crises. The research highlights that combining FinTech and ESG stocks can lower portfolio risk, while assets like cryptocurrencies and timber can act as effective hedges. These findings provide valuable guidance for investors and policymakers focused on sustainable and technology-driven investments. | |
