Abstract: In this study, based on the data of the Chinese listed firms, the effect of digital transformation on capital mismatch was examined. And the potential mechanism was also further discussed. It was found that digital transformation can significantly suppress capital mismatch, especially for non-state-owned enterprises, mature enterprises, and regions with high marketization and financial technology level. In addition, management capability and information environment are potential influencing mechanisms of digital transformation to suppress capital mismatch. These findings have important implications for revealing the relationship between enterprise digital transformation and capital mismatch, provides new ideas for improving the efficiency of capital allocation, and also provides important insights for enterprises to accelerate digital transformation and promote the high-quality development of enterprises.
