| Summary: | Supply chain financing provides important funding channels for micro and small enterprises (MSEs), but effectively evaluating their creditworthiness remains challenging. Past methods overly rely on static financial indicators and subjective judgment in determining credit evaluation weights. This study proposes a dynamic credit evaluation approach that uses sensitivity analysis to optimize the weighting scheme. An indicator system is constructed based on the unique characteristics of e-commerce MSEs. The weight optimization integrates subjective, objective, and sensitivity-based methods to reflect specific financing scenarios. A system dynamics model simulates the credit evaluation mechanism and identifies the sensitivity of each influencing factor. The resultant comprehensive weights are applied in a TOPSIS-GRA dynamic evaluation model to assess MSE credit levels over time. An empirical analysis of 20 online stores demonstrates the proposed model's advantages in accurately revealing credit rankings relative to conventional static models. This research provides an effective data-driven weighting technique and dynamic evaluation framework for supply chain finance credit assessment. |
