The banking sector, as a major part of China\u2019s green financial system, undertakes significant responsibility for green finance while also confronting the opportunities and requirements of digital transformation. Big data technology is a major driver of digital transformation in the banking sector and can improve the green operational capability of the banking sector. The purpose of this study is to explore the ways in which the extent of big data technology transformation in the banking sector in China affects its ability to operate in a green manner and to analyze the moderating role of green credits, funds, and bonds. For this reason, this study selected A-share listed banks in China from 2015 to 2022 as research subjects and adopted a panel data regression method to study the impact of the degree of big data technology transformation on green operations. The results demonstrate that the degree of big data technology transformation in the banking sector positively influenced green operations. Green credit, funds, and bonds played a moderating role, meaning that financial products strengthened the role of the degree of big data technology transformation in green operations. This study examined the effect of big data technology transformation in the banking sector and enriches research on green finance. This study also provides practical insights for investors and regulators concerned with green development in the banking sector.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/systems12040135","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,17]],"date-time":"2024-04-17T07:54:36Z","timestamp":1713340476000},"page":"135","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["The Degree of Big Data Technology Transformation and Green Operations in the Banking Sector"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-1377-4860","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jiawen","family":"Yun","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Business, Gachon University, Seongnam 13120, Republic of Korea"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4835-8664","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shanyue","family":"Jin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Business, Gachon University, Seongnam 13120, Republic of Korea"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"21","DOI":"10.1186\/s40537-020-00291-z","article-title":"Current landscape and influence of big data on finance","volume":"7","author":"Hasan","year":"2020","journal-title":"J.
