- Abstract
Mutual funds in Indonesia face rapid growth in total asset under management (AUM), the number of products, and the number of investors. The growth is supported by digital innovation, making people comfortable accessing information and doing mutual fund transactions using the internet. Besides the appearance of the marketplace that offers mutual fund products, people get convenience in terms of time and cost. This study aims to determine what factor influences intention on investing in mutual fund products by using an approach from the theory of planned behavior. Theory of planned behavior can be used to predict and understand factors that determine particular behavior. The theory identified that attitude, subjective norms, and perceived control behavior would collectively form a behavioral intention. In this study, the variables used consist of attitude, subjective norm, perceived control behavior, and another variable added to measure investment intention, which is financial literacy. The analysis technique in this study is multiple linear regression. The sampling method is using nonprobability sampling, which involves Indonesian mutual fund investors. This study indicates that, in general, the attitude had a positive effect and strongest predictor on the intention to invest in mutual funds product.
