| Summary: | Blockchain technology can completely transform the financial sector by
increasing security, transparency, and productivity. The united arab emirates (uae)
has demonstrated a significant interest in blockchain technology and is moving to
implement it in several industries. The decision to adopt blockchain technology in the
stock market necessitates the readiness of uae investors, who are considered the
primary stakeholders in the market. Therefore, this study investigated the behavioural
intention of uae investors to use blockchain technology in the stock market,
integrating the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (utaut) model
with variable trust. A questionnaire survey was used to gather information from
investors in the uae. The sample’s study consisted of individuals who have
experience investing in the uae stock market and are familiar with blockchain
technology. Using a quantitative research method, a sample of 274 questionnaires was
distributed among the targeted respondents of stock market investors in the uae. To
analyse the data, the partial least square (pls) structural equation modelling (sem)
approach was employed. The findings of the study showed that factors like
performance expectancy, social influence, and trust positively and significantly impact
the behavioural intentions of investors. Additionally, the study observed a moderating
effect of the investors’ age on the facilitating conditions and their behavioural intention
to use blockchain technology. |
