Measuring eBusiness effectiveness in the financial services industry


The financial services industry business model can be distilled down to a few basic components of which information-based products and services are at the core. This model or cycle consists of five key elements - sales and marketing, application, processing, fulfilment and ongoing customer service - and readily adapts to an eBusiness model.

Given this point we wondered how well the financial services industry has applied the fundamental business model to one that is eBusiness based. An Andersen team decided to evaluate the industry on its current state of readiness to effectively transact business through this still relatively new medium. From December 1999 to March 2000, more than 100 financial services organisations' web sites were studied. Each of the following industry segments was evaluated on how effectively it has leveraged the five components of the financial services business cycle. Find out how each of them fared (PDF):
