Abstract

In recent years, information technology (IT) — notably the Internet — has been largely adopted on a commercial basis by businesses across the globe. This has been the case in both developed and emerging markets spanning various sectors including education (e-learning); retail (e-commerce); and financial services (e-banking). This chapter highlights the opportunities offered by the deployment of IT for the competitiveness of banks — taken from an emerging market perspective. © 2010 by World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte.
