Abstract

This study investigates the efficiency and productivity of zakat institutions in Indonesia before and during the Covid-19 pandemic using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI). Our findings reveal that three out of the five zakat institutions exhibited efficiency at different periods. Notably, LAZ Al Azhar demonstrated consistent efficiency both before and during the pandemic, while LAZISNU was efficient in 2019-2020 but experienced inefficiency in 2021. Additionally, LAZ Rumah Zakat exhibited an increase in efficiency in 2020 but regressed to inefficiency in 2021, primarily attributed to excessive distribution of ZIS funds in each institution. These findings highlight the urgent need for standardization and optimization of zakat management to unlock its immense potential for equitable distribution and impact during times of crisis, offering valuable insights for policymakers and zakat institutions globally. Highlights: Standardization and Optimization: The absence of standardized zakat management contributes to suboptimal collection and distribution of zakat funds in Indonesia. DEA and MPI Analysis: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) serve as effective methods to evaluate the operational efficiency and productivity of zakat institutions. Implications for Global Zakat Institutions: Understanding the dynamics of zakat efficiency during crises can offer valuable insights for similar institutions worldwide to enhance their distribution impact and resource management. Keywords: Zakat institutions, Efficiency, Productivity, Indonesia, Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract

This article explores the transformative role of financial technology (fintech) in Indonesia, specifically focusing on micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Sidoarjo. While fintech presents a promising avenue for MSME growth by providing access to banking services and capital, its adoption is hindered by limited MSME familiarity with fintech tools. In response, this study introduces the Peer-to-Peer Lending Sharia scheme as a viable alternative capital source for nonbankable MSMEs. The research employs a multifaceted approach encompassing awareness campaigns and educational initiatives to boost MSME fintech literacy. Through a comprehensive evaluation, this intervention reveals improved understanding and acceptance of fintech solutions among MSMEs. Consequently, the article underscores the significance of nurturing fintech literacy in enhancing financial inclusion, promoting sustainable MSME expansion, and fostering economic resilience in Indonesia. Highlights: Empowering Nonbankable MSMEs: Explore the impact of fintech adoption, particularly Peer-to-Peer Lending, in enabling growth for traditionally underserved micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia. Enhancing Fintech Literacy: Investigate the efficacy of literacy initiatives aimed at increasing MSMEs' understanding and utilization of fintech tools, focusing on Peer-to-Peer Lending schemes, to overcome barriers in adoption. Sustainable Economic Resilience: Highlight the potential of improved MSME fintech literacy to foster financial inclusion, promote sustainable business expansion, and contribute to economic resilience within local communities in Sidoarjo, Indonesia.
