Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we provide an empirical analysis of the impact of the digital divide on the level of high-quality economic development in ASEAN. We find that digital divide hinders the level of high-quality economic development. Further research indicates that the level of financial cooperation can better weaken the negative impact of the digital divide on the high-quality economic development of countries. At the same time, we obtain that the digital divide with neighboring countries will affect the level of high-quality economic development in neighboring countries.
