  • AI-assisted investment decisions: impact of risk perception and algorithmic bias on decision quality and portfolio optimisation   Order a copy of this article
    by Preeti Sharma, Vijay Kumar Jain, Vikas Tyagi, Nilesh Movalia 
    Abstract: The increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in financial investing has reshaped how investors evaluate information and make decisions. The study investigates the impact of perceived risk and algorithmic bias on behavioural intention in AI-assisted investing and how they ultimately determine the quality of investment decisions. A theoretical framework was proposed and empirically tested using the theory of technology acceptance and the theory of behavioural finance. The collected data from the final sample of 482 respondents were analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) with the SmartPLS software. The results reveal that investor trust (β = 0.75) is the most important factor affecting AI usage followed by perceived usefulness (β = 0.22). Both perceived risk and algorithmic bias are the important mediators that influence the behavioural intentions of investors. Further, behavioural intention has a positive impact on quality of investment decision which is enhanced by financial literacy.
