Abstract
Despite the growing importance of Supply Chain Finance (SCF) for cross-border e-commerce SMEs, research on their adoption factors remains scarce. This study analyses 257 publications to bridge this gap. Findings reveal a rapidly growing field with China leading in both research and adoption. Performance, management, and impact are central themes, while blockchain and online SCF platforms emerge as trends. Future research directions include investigating blockchain's impact on risks, understanding the role of e-retailer platforms, and analysing specific challenges faced by cross-border e-commerce SMEs. This research highlights the increasing importance of SCF and identifies key areas for further exploration to optimize its benefits for this crucial sector.
