Abstract

This study addresses a gap in the current research by investigating the relationship between BC based financial solutions and SC recoverability and financial resilience. Previous research provides little empirical evidence on how and under what conditions Fintech improves the manufacturing firm's financial resilience. This empirical research draws on the resource base view (RBV) to investigate the role of Fintech as a driver of better relationship transparency and SC production risk management for financial resilience. The data was collected from 295 engineering manufacturers in India. A key contribution of this study is that it provides new insights by highlighting the role of Blockchain Technology (BCT), built on the Ethereum-based system, in strengthening SC recoverability and enhancing relationship transparency. We present a research framework grounded in the Resource-Based View (RBV) that illustrates how blockchain technology (BCT) can provide firms with critical competencies for developing relationship transparency and managing production risks, thereby enhancing financial resilience in the SC. Relationship transparency, essential for SC recoverability, is pivotal in establishing the link between BCT and SC recoverability. Our findings advise SC managers that relationship transparency improves SC recoverability and may be an important source of financial resilience.

数字技术的采用和SC的可恢复性。关系透明度对供应链生产风险管理能力的中介作用

本研究通过调查基于BC的金融解决方案与SC可恢复性和金融弹性之间的关系，解决了当前研究中的一个空白。之前的研究几乎没有提供关于金融科技如何以及在什么条件下提高制造业企业财务弹性的经验证据。本实证研究利用资源基础观点（RBV）来调查金融科技作为更好的关系透明度和SC生产风险管理对金融弹性的驱动因素的作用。这些数据来自印度的295家工程制造商。本研究的一个关键贡献是，它通过强调基于以太坊系统的区块链技术（BCT）在加强SC可恢复性和提高关系透明度方面的作用，提供了新的见解。我们提出了一个基于资源基础观点（RBV）的研究框架，说明区块链技术（BCT）如何为企业提供发展关系透明度和管理生产风险的关键能力，从而增强供应链的财务弹性。关系透明度对于供应链可恢复性至关重要，对于建立BCT和供应链可恢复性之间的联系至关重要。我们的研究结果建议供应链管理者，关系透明度提高了供应链的可恢复性，可能是财务弹性的重要来源。
