Although internet banking promises several benefits to bank customers, the adoption of online banking services continue to be low especially in developing countries. Prior research has examined internet banking adoption as a classification problem with a focus on adopters and non-adopters using...

This exploratory study examines the success of electronic banking systems implementation in a developing nation environment. We use the DeLone and McLean (D&M) Information System (IS) success model as a theoretical framework to examine the success of IS implementations in one national bank and...

This study uses the deterrence theory to explain investors' behaviour towards the announcement of internet security breaches in the public media. Using the event study methodology, we compute the abnormal returns over a three day window. We then use decision tree induction to investigate how...

In this paper, we investigate the extent to which economic, human development endowment, political, and population conditions influence information and communication technology (ICT) capacity in African nations using ordinary least squares. We use five variables to measure ICT capacity: ICT...

The temporal and regional process of knowledge spillover that has a distinct geographical performance is an important process proposed by the theory of new economic growth. Based on two case studies on the keywords of sustainable development and knowledge economy, it is found that it is improper...

Based on the Partial Distribution [F. Dai, 2001] and the theory of Development Power [F. Dai, 2004], this paper discusses the power model of relation between development power (DP) and productivity. The power model also supports the hypothesis [F. Dai, 2005] that there are three kinds of energy...

In this paper, we consider the expected discounted penalty function (i.e., the Gerber-Shiu function) for the continuous-time compound binomial risk model. A recursive equation and the Laplace transform of this function are obtained. Some properties related to the moment of the surplus...

Based on the Partial Distribution (Feng Dai, 2001), a new model to price an asset (MPA) is given. Going a step further, this paper puts forward the Multivariate Partial Distribution (MPD) for the first time. By use of MPD, we could gain a new kind of model for pricing the group assets (MPGA), in...

This paper deals with a class of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs in short). Under a kind of non-Lipschitz assumptions, the authors obtain the existence and uniqueness of solution to BSDE.
