Digitalization and Industry 4.0 are transforming supply chain operations worldwide. However, traditional supply chain finance (SCF) practices often overlook sustainability. This study explores how SCF, supported by Industry 4.0 technologies, can enhance supply chain sustainability by integrating the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. By examining five real-world cases using a qualitative case study approach, we develop a conceptual framework that captures the roles and interrelationships among key actors in sustainable supply chain finance (SSCF). This study employed cognitive mapping to visually synthesize these complex processes. The findings reveal that innovative technologies, stakeholder engagement, and targeted financial incentives can drive sustainable improvements across supply chains. The insights from this research offer valuable guidance for practitioners and policymakers and provide a foundation for future empirical studies. Full article

COVID-19 has created a strong demand for supply chain finance (SCF) for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). However, the rapid development of SCF leads to more complex credit risks. How to effectively discriminate and manage SMEs to reduce credit risk has become one of the most critical issues in SCF. In addition, sustainable SCF (SSCF) has received increasing attention, and credit risk management is important to achieve SSCF. Therefore, it is significant to identify the key factors influencing the credit risk of SMEs and construct a prediction model to promote SSCF. This study uses the lasso-logistic model to identify factors influencing the credit risk of SMEs and to predict the credit risk of SMEs. The empirical results show that (i) the key factors influencing SMEs’ credit risk include six variables—the matching degree of order data, ratio of contract enforcement, number of contract defaults, degree of business concentration, and number of administrative penalties; and (ii) the lasso-logistic model can identify the key factors influencing credit risk and have a better prediction performance. Moreover, transaction credit and reputation supervision significantly influence the credit risk of SMEs. Full article
