E-finance: recent developments and policy implications

Setsuya Sato, John HAWKINS, Aleksander Berentsen

Research output: A Conference proceeding or a Chapter in BookChapter

Abstract

The internet begun to profoundly affect how financial services are delivered. On the one hand, the Internet affords convenience, price transparency, broader access to information, and lower cost; on the other hand, financial services are data-intensive and generally require no physical delivery. Combining the two should give the perfect environment for new entrants to build substantial businesses, go up the value chain, and compete on price.
