<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Kapitalmärkte und Finanzinstitutionen haben mit dem zunehmenden Einfluss des E-Commerce auf ihr Geschäft zu kämpfen. E-Finance ist daher ein heiss diskutiertes und komplexes Thema - Elektronischer Handel, E-Commerce Riskmanagement, B2B-Geschäfte, E-Broker, Alternative Trading Systems (ATS), um nur einige Kernbereiche zu nennen. e-Finance untersucht die sich hieraus ergebenden neuen Chancen und Herausforderungen für den Finanzbereich und gibt einen leicht verständlichen Überblick über diesen dynamischen Sektor.<br /> Dazu nimmt Autor Erik Banks die Kernelemente des elektronischen Handels genau unter die Lupe - die Entwicklung von E-Commerce Geschäftsmodellen, 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. Darüber hinaus spricht er Vor- und Nachteile des traditionellen und virtuellen Banking (in all seinen Varianten) an und untersucht potentielle Wachstumsbereiche sowie mögliche künftige Entwicklungen (insbesondere im Hinblick auf Wettbewerbs- und Marktstrukturen). Zahlreiche Beispiele aus verschiedenen Ländern belegen Expansion, Fehlschläge, Erfolge und Zukunft der digitalen Finanzwelt sehr anschaulich: Schwab, Fidelity, Citibank, London Stock Exchange/Deutsche Börse/Ix, Eurex, E-Trade, Egg/Prudential, Reuters, Yahoo Finance, Virgin, Microsoft, Wingspanbank, usw. Verständlich und praxisnah.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>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.
