Will the wallet soon be a thing of the past? At the rate mobile banking apps are being adopted, who knows. Intuit annou

Mobile P2P: I'm more than just a number!

It is true, we are more than just a number. Unfortunately people don't tend to have unique names - for instance I share my name with the developer of a computer game from the 1980's called "Repton". In the physical world, this doesn't really matter - if I need to give you some money I hand it to you in person: I have identified you, we

The impact of cybercrime on e-invoicing: five highlights

The EU is a key target for cybercrime because of its advanced Internet infrastructure, rates of adoption and increasingly Internet-mediated economies and payment systems. A few weeks ago Europol, EU’s defence against the dark arts, released their rapport (or iOCTA as they call it) on cybercrime. Underneath or some highlights from this illusive rapp...

Green, the Colour of Future Banking

This piece is especially for those who believe that sustainability looks good in a mission statement but not on a balance sheet. CFS, U.K., which claims to be the world’s most sustainable bank, turned out stellar results in the first half of 2010, when others were still overcoming the crisis blues. Is sustainability sustainable? Let me answer that...

Look at what it adds up to

I had a meeting recently where an analysis was presented that a small enterprise could save 12 working days a year in the area of automating administrative processes (based on migration to e-invoicing). One participant said that this is not of any use as the SME cannot get rid of a part of a person. I protested - rather vehemently for the followin...

A feint towards iPhone in the enterprise

Deutsche Bank trial iPhone usage. It’s an interesting commentary but I think the highlight of the story is missing from this article. As per many organisations running trials with the type of software supplied by Good technology, this is aimed at supplying a secure route to corporate information (email, intranet etc) in a sand-boxed App on devi

If FaceBook can invent its own money--Why can't you?

The idea of a virtual marketplace is no longer new--companies like Second Life have already proven the viability of creating money out of nothing. Last year, Second Life's user-to-user transactions topped $567 million in real U.S. currency and their users, known as residents, cashed out $55 million in real Second Life earnings. That's a whole lot...
