The impact of the digital economy on the ripple effect of financial risks has attracted attention. Based on the data of flow of funds statements (financial accounts), spanning from 2011 to 2020, the fund flow analysis method was used to build a model measuring financial risk ripple effect. Second, we built a panel regression model, which studies the impact of the digital economy on the ripple effect of financial risks. In addition, we explored the heterogeneous effects of different dimensions of the digital economy on the ripple effect of financial risks. Our findings revealed several key conclusions. First, the total financial risk ripple effects between 2011 and 2020 continued to change, and the ripple effects of different types of financial risks have heterogeneity. Second, the digital economy has a negative impact on the ripple effect of financial risks. Third, the different dimensions of the digital economy have heterogeneity in the ripple effect of financial risks. Specifically, the digital economy user index and the digital economy innovation index have a negative impact on financial risk ripple effect. The digital economy platform index and the digital economy industry index have insignificant effects on financial risk ripple effect.
