Dissertation

  • “Transactive memory system, innovation, and performance of Peer to Peer Lending FinTech in Indonesia.” This research focused on how a firm might entrench benefits from its’ collaboration through the concept of a Transactive Memory System (TMS) at the inter-firm collaboration level. This research argued that the availability of TMS among the P2P lending FinTech firm and its collaboration might enhance the firm’s competitive advantage, such innovation, leading to better performance in the market. This research mainly contributes to the TMS research field, where the concept of TMS is primarily used in a small group and has never been investigated in inter-firm collaboration. The current study also contributes to the TMS field as it goes to the dimensional level rather than using TMS as a second-order factor construct. The study used 101 responses from Indonesian FinTech P2P Lending firms, which covered up to 70% of the population.
