2000～2022年の109カ国データを用い、気候緩和資金が途上国の炭素排出強度を低下させる効果を検証。しかし、高所得国への輸出依存度が高い国ではその効果が弱まり、二国間援助ルートに限定されることを発見。貿易政策と気候資金の整合性の必要性を示唆。
English
Using panel data from 109 developing countries over 2000-2022, this study finds that official climate mitigation finance significantly reduces carbon emission intensity, but this effect weakens in countries with high trade dependency on high-income economies, particularly for bilateral aid. Results highlight the need to align climate finance with trade policies.

📄 Abstract（原文）
This study examines the relationship between official climate mitigation finance aid, trade dependency, and carbon emission intensity in developing economies. Using data from 109 countries over 2000–2022 and applying panel fixed-effects regressions, we find that mitigation finance is significantly and negatively associated with recipients' carbon emission intensity. However, this negative relationship is weaker in countries with higher trade dependency on high-income economies, suggesting that external trade structures may constrain the negative association between mitigation finance and carbon emissions. Specifically, a one-standard-deviation increase in mitigation finance is associated with a 0.05-point decrease in carbon emission intensity; however, this relationship significantly diminishes by 0.02 points when the recipient's export share to high-income economies increases by one standard deviation. The weakening effect varies across levels of trade openness, with some evidence in economies with moderate trade openness. Finally, we document a moderating role of the agency channel: the weakening effect is significant only for flows extended by bilateral agencies and disappears for flows channeled through multilateral agencies. These findings underscore the need for policymakers to align climate finance strategies with trade policies to enhance decarbonization efforts in developing economies.
