The expansion of the internet network and the intensification of gadget functions have grown digital payment systems in mobile payments, internet banking, QR Codes, and electronic payments. Using a Systematic Literature Review, the study examined various Scopus articles from Asian countries to obtain an overview of the factors that influence the adoption of digital payments. We analyzed 597 digital, electronic, and mobile payment articles. TAM and UTAUT were found to be the most widely found theories to significantly affect user intent and even the continuity of digital payment use. While in the method, the structural equation model becomes the most widely used analytical method in various scientific publications related to this topic. This study has found internal and external factors from users in the adoption process of digital payments, including trust, perceived risk, satisfaction, security social influences, and facilitation conditions. Interestingly, some of these factors were insignificant in some studies due to differences in digital payment products that were the object of the study, respondents, and differences in research methods and approaches.","PeriodicalId":347485,"journal":{"name":"Advanced International Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship and SMEs","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126383852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To solve the problem using the external and internal environmental analysis. The external environmental analysis used the PESTEL, Porter Five’s Forces, and competitor analysis. Meanwhile, the internal environmental analysis used the VRIO framework, value chain analysis, and existing Business Model Canvas (BMC). Afterward, the data were summarized in the SWOT table for strategy formulation. It consisted of IE matrix and TOWS matrix as company level strategy and functional level strategy, then the new proposed Business Model Canvas (BMC). Based on the analysis of IE Matrix, the current company classification position is in cluster five. This indicates that the company should implement a hold and maintain business strategy with two options, namely market penetration and product development. Furthermore, pros and cons analysis is used to obtain the best strategy from these options. The company should implement a product development strategy by improving the existing product quality, namely green architectural requirements in the design concept and utilizing BIM technology. The TOWS matrix resulted in 11 functional strategies applied in the marketing, human resources, operations, and financial field.","PeriodicalId":347485,"journal":{"name":"Advanced International Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship and SMEs","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116482537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, as much attention is being given to investigating the effect of finance on SMEs’ performance, its impact as a mediating factor in the relationship between firms’ internal growth strategies and export performance indicators, has not been sufficiently established in most developing economies including Nigeria. The present study thus examines this gap in a multi-stage, cross-sectional and purposive survey of 285 owners/managers of SME firms in Lagos, Oyo, and Osun with the highest numbers of SMEs in Nigeria. The empirical data collected were processed and analysed with multiple regression and correlation methods on PASW Statistics 18. The result shows internal growth strategy impacting positively and significantly on EP through entrepreneurial orientation, employees’ productivity enhancement programs, marketing philosophy, resources, and export risk management. Similarly, positive and significant effects of finance on EP were established through firms’ access to credits and start-up capital, terms of loans, and financing mechanisms for export facilitation. Essentially, the study detected evidence of the mediation effect of finance as a significant factor in the relationship between SMEs’ internal growth strategy and export performance in southwest Nigeria. The three hypotheses tested were thus, rejected and recommendations made to SMEs’ stakeholders & government to strengthen entrepreneurial ingenuity, employees’ productivity enhancement, SMEs’ financial inclusion, and long-term strategic management in the areas of SMEs’ competitive advantage and positioning strategies in the foreign market.","PeriodicalId":347485,"journal":{"name":"Advanced International Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship and SMEs","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125378518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
