Summary/Abstract: This comprehensive study delves into the intricate relationship between techno-logical advancement, innovations, and their impact on the development of financial markets (FD index), Human Development Index (HDI), and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita. The fundamental inquiry driving this research is: “How does the level of technology and innova-tions influence the market development index, the Human Development Index, and GDP per capita?” This study aims to examine how technology and strategies affect important economic indicators. It asks if following the same digital and innovation strategies as specific countries could help improve the financial market, make people happy, and increase GDP per capita. This study employed regression analysis, with help from research and theory, to come up with conclusions. This is an inductive approach, so conclusions are not necessarily absolute. The findings underscore a pressing need for financial intermediaries in developing nations to reimagine their business models and swiftly adapt to the dynamic landscape of technological evolution. The research illuminates a critical nexus between advancements in digitization and tangible outcomes in the realms of economy and finance. It serves as a clarion call, emphasizing the paramount importance of agile responses to rapid technological shifts for ensuring enduring and sustainable development. The study’s implications reverberate across diverse sectors of society. By elucidating the intricate dynamics between technological progress and economic metrics, this research equips policymakers, financial institutions, and businesses with invaluable insights. These insights are indispensable for crafting strategic initiatives, fostering innovative ecosystems, and steering nations toward robust financial health, enhanced human development, and heightened GDP per capita. This research shows how technology can help improve financial and societal progress in developing nations. By embracing a culture of adaptability and harnessing the transformative power of innovation, countries can navigate the complexities of the modern era with resilience and agility. The findings serve as a catalyst for future research endeavors, encouraging scholars and practitioners to delve deeper into the multifaceted interplay between technology, finance, and human development. As societies stand at the crossroads of unprecedented technological proliferation, this study offers a roadmap, illuminating the path toward a future where technology catalyzes holistic and sustainable advancement, fostering a world marked by equitable prosperity and enduring progress.
