Supply chain finance (SCF), which has the key concept of the delivery of credit, is a new type of financial service that can enhance the financial efficiency of a supply chain. Using the transaction records from the core operations (CO) of the members, financers can provide a higher level of cash flow to the ecosystem. Moreover, financial sectors can upgrade their operations through SCF activities. However, while SCF services can help financial sectors improve their operations, there are many risks implied in SCF activities from CO to relative members. Therefore, this paper presents a novel model that applies a combination of triangular fuzzy numbers and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to the decision-making process to evaluate the decision behaviors regarding the preference the CO in the smartphone industry supply chain for financers in the SCF service. Academically, the FAIIP-based decision-making framework can provide the decision makers and administrators of financial institutions with valuable guidance for measuring the optimal CO of the smartphone industry in the SCF ecosystem. Commercially, the proposed model could provide administrators with a useful tool to assess the optimal CO of the smariphone industry within the SCF ecosystem for financers. (C) 2020 The Authors.
