Understanding the internet banking adoption by Portuguese customers - a unified theory of acceptance and use of technology and perceived risk application.
| Resumo: | The understanding of the main determinants of Internet banking adoption is important for banks and users. If banks understand users’ concerns, then they will be able to provide better services. In this investigation we developed a conceptual model that combined the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) with perceived risk in order to explain behaviour intention and usage behaviour of Internet banking. To test the conceptual model we collected data from Portugal (249 valid cases). We found that the model explained 60 percent of intention to use variance and 81 percent of usage variance. Our findings supported some relationships of UTAUT, as performance expectancy, effort expectancy and social influence, and also the role of risk as a stronger predictor of intention. To explain usage behaviour of Internet banking the most important factor was behavioural intention. |
