Abstract

This study aims to exfoliate light on green digital finance as a new conception that surfaced as a result of the development of the field of finance that aims to support environmental and sustainability systems using fiscal technology. To achieve this thing, we used the descriptive approach. The results of the study concluded that fiscal technology has a part in easing and directing backing towards environmental systems in an effective and transparent manner through numerous operations similar as online crowd funding platforms, block chain technologies, and data analysis. still, this faces numerous challenges related to the digital divide and cyber security, which requires joint efforts from governments and the private sector to deal with it effectively.
