How fintech impacts pre‐ and post‐loan risk in Chinese commercial banks

Abstract: Due to information asymmetry in the lending market, credit activities inevitably cause pre-and post-loan risk in banks. To explore whether these risks can be alleviated by fintech and study its specific mechanism from the perspective of managers, we investigate on a sample from the establishment of fintech subsidiaries in Chinese commercial banks during 2014-2018. The results show that fintech can alleviate pre-loan risk associated with credit activities, and this negative effect is more pronounced in banks wi… Show more

“…For instance, the classic conceptualisation of the resources and capabilities that can generate competitive advantages suggests that they have to be valuable, rare, inimitable and organised for exploitation (Barney & Clark, 2007). But in the light of a fintech platform's dual identity, what does it mean for a fintech platform that is primarily more of a tech firm (e.g., T. Tan et al, 2020), or more of a financial firm (e.g., a fintech subsidiary set up by an incumbent financial institution ‐ see Zhang et al, 2020)? It is likely that the strategic resources and capabilities at the platforms' disposal will be different in the two contexts because they are path dependent (Schreyögg & Kliesch‐Eberl, 2007).…”

“…This implies that future technological advances would reduce the financial vulnerability risks of banks in QISMUT+3 countries. This finding is logical as enhanced financial technology would result in reduced credit risk and therefore financial vulnerability risk in the form of NPL (Zhang et al , 2020). This is because of the fact that fintech supplies bank management with greater information to be used efficiently in the decision-making process, resulting in a decline in loan losses (Pérez-Martín et al , 2018).…”

“…Likely, advances in fintech also reduce financial vulnerability risk for both subsamples. The result was predicted as such because technological enhancements, within the decision-making process, enable banks to decrease their credit risk exposure, meaning less financial vulnerability risk (Zhang et al , 2020; Ozili, 2021). When considering the SGR variables, a greater CC induces profitability for both Islamic and conventional banks.…”

“…Financial institutions such as banks can use government R&D grants as a quality signal of a enterprise's R&D projects, so as to alleviate information asymmetry with these enterprises (Wu et al, 2021). The application of financial technology in commercial banks can also alleviate the pre-and post-loan risk associated with credit activities (Pan et al, 2021;Zhang et al, 2022). On the other hand, technology-based enterprises can also turn to external equity financing.…”
