From the publisher

Kapitalmrkte und Finanzinstitutionen haben mit dem zunehmenden Einfluss des E-Commerce auf ihr Geschft zu kmpfen. E-Finance ist daher ein heiss diskutiertes und komplexes Thema - Elektronischer Handel, E-Commerce Riskmanagement, B2B-Geschfte, E-Broker, Alternative Trading Systems (ATS), um nur einige Kernbereiche zu nennen. "e-Finance" untersucht die sich hieraus ergebenden neuen Chancen und Herausforderungen fr den Finanzbereich und gibt einen leicht verstndlichen berblick ber diesen dynamischen Sektor.
Dazu nimmt Autor Erik Banks die Kernelemente des elektronischen Handels genau unter die Lupe - die Entwicklung von E-Commerce Geschftsmodellen, die Technologie und die Finanzierung der digitalen Finanzwelt. Er analysiert Finanzdienstleistungen, die man institutionellen - und Privatkunden weltweit anbieten kann und die damit verbundenen relativen Kosten. Darber hinaus spricht er Vor- und Nachteile des traditionellen und virtuellen Banking (in all seinen Varianten) an und untersucht potentielle Wachstumsbereiche sowie mgliche knftige Entwicklungen (insbesondere im Hinblick auf Wettbewerbs- und Marktstrukturen). Zahlreiche Beispiele aus verschiedenen Lndern belegen Expansion, Fehlschlge, Erfolge und Zukunft der digitalen Finanzwelt sehr anschaulich: Schwab, Fidelity, Citibank, London Stock Exchange/Deutsche Brse/Ix, Eurex, E-Trade, Egg/Prudential, Reuters, Yahoo Finance, Virgin, Microsoft, Wingspanbank, usw. Verstndlich und praxisnah.

Electronic commerce, digital money, online trading, and web banking-we hear these terms on the evening news and read about them in the daily newspapers.

From the rear cover

e-Finance: The Electronic Revolution is the first comprehensive and practical attempt to chart the history, progress and future of B2B and B2C electronic financial services. It explains clearly and concisely how and why the world of retail and institutional finance has started a migration from conventional foundations to computerized, Internet-driven practices, and considers where such efforts will ultimately lead. Industry examples from different countries and markets are included throughout the book to illustrate the expansion, failures, successes, and future of electronic finance.
The book is aimed at a general financial audience and includes specific discussion about:
* the key elements that have made electronic commerce a reality, focusing on the creation and expansion of the Internet/advances in communications/computers (technology), the development of e-commerce business models (ideas), and the availability of venture capital/equity to fund growth (capital);
* the nature of the financial products, services and information that are available to institutional and individual customers around the world (along with their relative costs, benefits, and drawbacks);
* the advantages/disadvantages of traditional and virtual finance, potential areas of growth and consolidation, and the future path of the industry in a rapidly-changing environment (with a particular focus on competition and market structures).
