The effect of financial knowledge on firm performance

Abstract

This research aims to know the effect of financial knowledge on firm performance; the role of financial behavior and access to finance as mediation and the role of financial risk attitude as moderation. The object of this research is the owner of small-medium enterprises, sector food and beverage in Malang. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire of 150 respondents. Data analysis of this research uses partial least square (PLS). The finding indicates that financial knowledge has a positive and significant effect on firm performance; financial behavior mediates the relationship of financial knowledge dan firm performance; while access to finance doesn’t mediate the relationship of financial knowledge with firm performance. This research also found that financial risk attitude weakens the relationship of financial knowledge with financial behavior.
