“…They study the individual projects that are posted online on the crowdfunding platform and make lending decisions on a per‐project basis (Marakkath & Attuel‐mendes, 2015). This form of lending has also sometimes been called prosocial lending (Anglin et al, 2022; Luo et al, 2022) because these crowdfunders (sometimes called prosocial lenders or second‐tier lenders) do not typically receive any interest on their loans. Instead, their motivation for lending may be intrinsic, and driven by egalitarian or social goals (c.f., Anglin et al, 2022; Berns et al, 2020).…”

“…Because MFIs can access globally, several million crowdfunders at relatively low cost on such Internet‐supported crowdfunding platforms, they may be able to leverage fundraising on a scale not seen heretofore (Anglin et al, 2022). Further, researchers have argued that unlike the traditional models of microfinance under which MFIs may over time get tempted to abandon their social mission and instead chase profits (c.f., Mia & Lee, 2017), crowdfunded microfinance may be more likely to stay the course with the social mission of poverty elimination and social upliftment (Anglin et al, 2020).…”

“…To address this problem, we contend that is important to understand how recent developments in the BOP space influence SRIs bounce back and resiliency. Our focus in this paper is on one solution that is recently gaining a lot of attention in the literature—crowdfunded microfinance (e.g., Anglin et al, 2022; Berns et al, 2021; Luo et al, 2022) and how it may or may not ameliorate the extant problem.…”

Much of the extant scholarship in supply chain management (SCM) has had a developed world focus, although most of the global population resides outside this area. SCM scholars are now recognizing this limitation in the coverage of our communities' research. They have recognized that the logistical challenges of getting products to these underserved markets at the bottom of the economic pyramid (BOP) may be fundamentally different from the “big box” mindset that prevails in the west. There is growing recognition that supply chain entrepreneurship is critical to the logistics and physical distribution systems that can get products to such markets in a cost‐effective manner. Yet, such entrepreneurs, who are often small, and weakly integrated into the global economy, face several challenges in their daily business. Many of them rely on microfinance to fund their business. Yet, the microfinance model itself is changing into a web‐supported crowdfunded model. The current study investigates how an entrepreneur's circumstances with regard to their borrowing status as a first‐time borrower, and their intent with regard to business expansion influence their success in fundraising on a crowdfunding platform. Results reveal that BOP entrepreneurs who are “repeat borrowers” have difficulty in obtaining funding for their business plans.

“…The theory of funding access for MSMEs, as explained by Anglin et al (2023), Arzubiaga et al (2023) and Fiorentin et al (2023), emphasizes the importance of easier and more affordable funding availability during presidential elections as a determinant of MSME growth and adaptation. Within this framework, improved access to working capital during the presidential election period will enable MSMEs to respond to opportunities and overcome production barriers.…”

This study aims to investigate the influence of independent variables, such as SME economic policies, political stability, funding access, regulatory changes, economic growth and policy uncertainty on SME performance leading up to the 2024 presidential election in Indonesia. This research employs a quantitative approach with regression analysis methodology. Data was collected through a survey using Google Form from SME owners in 29 districts and nine cities in East Java province. The research findings indicate that SME economic policies, political stability and economic growth have a positive and significant impact on SME performance. Meanwhile, funding access and policy uncertainty do not significantly affect SME performance. Regulatory changes also have a positive and significant impact on SME performance. These findings hold critical implications for the development of the SME ecosystem in Indonesia. In the context of an evolving economy, this research provides a solid foundation for decisionmaking in designing more effective policies. Additionally, the government's involvement in creating a stable and conducive environment for supporting, advancing and developing the SME sector, which is a vital pillar of the Indonesian economy, is highlighted.
