| Summary: | Digitalization and disruption of technology have made its appearance towards the financial
industry, including in the investment system as peer-to-peer lending. Peer-to-peer lending is
an online marketplace where lenders, known as investors, can lend their money to individuals
or small businesses. This study aims to analyze the changes in investor’s decision-making
behaviour after they have experienced the usage of P2P lending platform as one of the
investment instrument. Variables measured as the factor affecting the results are P2P lending
experience, cognitive-based trust, affect-based trust, and economic expectation which results
in the relation of institutional perceived risk and platform trust. In the end, these latent
variables are analyzed using PLS-SEM process to understand how it affects the investment
decision-making behaviour through the investor’s overconfidence bias.
This research is conducted through quantitative approach to 204 respondents around
Indonesia which aim to study the influence of Peer-to-peer lending platforms towards
individuals’ investment behaviour and to correctly identify the relationship along with its
supporting factors between individuals’ investment behaviour that would lead into
investment decisions through peer-to-peer lending experience. The findings from this
research show that the usage of the peer-to-peer lending platform does affect the investor as
they seek for a riskier investment and have more confidence in doing investment activities
although the impact is not highly significant. Furthermore related to the platform strategy,
privacy protection leads to the decrease in the perceived risk; thus, lead the investor to invest
through a peer-to-peer lending platform with the support from the ease of use of the platform.
