Abstract

Recently, digital transformation in the financial industry has been accelerated, and it has become an important task to improve the level of utilization of Internet banking by elderly consumers, who are vulnerable to Internet use. Accordingly, this study analyzed 3,101 respondents in their 60s or older from the 11th year of the Media Panel Survey to identify demographic, experiential, and psychological factors that affect the self-efficacy of elderly consumers' usage of Internet banking. The main research findings are as follows. First, gender, education, occupation, and income were identified as demographic variables. Second, the Internet shopping experience was identified as an experiential factor. Also, concerns about information security, digital literacy, and high will for problem-solving were identified as psychological factors. Third, as a result of the moderating effect analysis on whether the experiential and psychological factors have different influences according to the group divided into the 60s and 70s, the effect on self-efficacy in the usage of the Internet was classified by age. The results of this study will be able to enrich the discussions related to the intention to utilize technology among elderly consumers by empirically revealing that there are characteristics that cause differences in financial behavior even within one group called the elderly.

최근 금융산업에서의 디지털 전환이 가속화되며, 인터넷 활용의 취약계층인 고령 소비자의 인터넷 뱅킹 사용 수준을 제고하는 것은 중요한 과제가 되었다. 이에 본 연구는 미디어패널조사 11차년도 자료의 60대 이상 3,101명의 응답을 분석하여, 고령 소비자의 인터넷 뱅킹 사용에 대한 자기효능감에 영향을 미치는 인구통계학적, 경험적, 심리적 요인을 규명하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째 고령 소비자의 인터넷 뱅킹 사용에 대한 자기효능감에 미치는 인구통계학적 변수로 성별, 교육수준, 직업유무, 소득수준을 확인하였다. 둘째 고령 소비자의 인터넷 뱅킹 사용에 대한 자기효능감에 영향을 미치는 경험적 요인으로 인터넷 쇼핑 경험을, 심리적 요인으로 정보보안우려, 디지털 리터러시, 높은 문제해결의지를 확인하였다. 셋째, 경험적, 심리적 영향요인이 60대와 70대 이상의 연령 구분에 따라 다른 영향력을 갖는지에 대하여 조절효과 분석을 실시한 결과, 모든 변수에서 연령 구분에 따라 인터넷 뱅킹 사용에 대한 자기효능감에 미치는 영향력이 다름을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 고령층으로 구분되는 소비자 집단 내에서도 금융행동의 차이를 유발하는 특성이 있음을 경험적으로 밝혀냄으로써 고령 소비자의 비대면 금융 서비스 활용과 관련한 논의에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
