Abstract

Small and medium-sized enterprise medium-sized enterprisesSMEs) are vital to the global economy but face difficulties securing financing. Crowdfunding serves as an alternative means for supporting Bumiputera SME growth, but research on the behavioural intention of SMEs to conduct crowdfunding is scarce. This study addresses the gap by reviewing the literature on the behavioural intention of SMEs to conduct crowdfunding. This study uses a combination of bibliometric and systematic review methods to analyse the factors that can influence the crowdfunding platform usage of SME entrepreneurs. By following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) 2021guidelines, this study reviews 27 papers and identifies key themes from the factors that may influence the behavioural intention of SMEs to conduct crowdfunding, such as financing accessibility, performance and effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions and trialability. This study contributes to future research by exploring the factors that can influence the behavioural intention of SMEs to conduct crowdfunding through a systematic review of previous studies and expanding theoretical models, with constructs such as trialability, for policymaking. The findings can assist policymakers in formulating strategies to support SME growth by identifying the key behavioural factors that can influence the behavioural intention of SMEs to conduct crowdfunding.
