Deploying Internet banking and e-commerce—case study of a private-sector bank in India

Abstract

Over the last decade India has been one of the fastest adopters of information technology, particularly because of its capability to provide software solutions to organizations around the world. This capability has provided a tremendous impetus to the domestic banking industry in India to deploy the latest in technology, particularly in the Internet banking and e-commerce arenas. This article discusses the experiences of a private-sector bank in deploying Internet banking and e-commerce in India. Strategic alignment of business and IT strategies, planning and implementation of e-banking initiatives, and management of benefits are captured, along with key contributions to development.

Whose gain is it anyway? Structurational perspectives on deploying ICTs for development in India's microfinance sector

Looking beyond technology: a study of e-banking channel acceptance by Indian customers

“…The emergence of NPSBs, expansion by the foreign banks, the changing business model of the nationalised banks compounded by financial reforms and burgeoning of middle class, has, over the last ten years, completely transformed the ways banks in India operate. The government-owned commercial banks today have a market share of around 75% (down from the earlier 95%), the private sector banks about 20% and the foreign banks about 5% (Kannabiran and Narayan, 2005). NPSBs perceived that future competition among banks would be essentially based on the technology and developed state-of-the-art technology infrastructure, comparable with that of banks in developed countries.…”
