Description of The Future of Global Financial Services |
This book explores the future of the financial services industry, giving readers an idea of the kinds of institutions and services that will survive in the early twenty-first century. It offers an informative and provocative exploration of the future of the financial services industry. It focuses on likely changes in the near future, such as greater use of the Internet for banking transactions and the increasing globalization of financial services. It points to the probable disappearance of the insurance sector as a separate industry. It describes changing conditions in key financial centres, especially the US, the UK, Germany, Japan and Switzerland.

Reviews"Robert Grosse shows that, despite the internet, most financial services are still delivered locally; indeed the world's largest international financial institutions (such as Allianz and Merrill Lynch) are leaders in their home markets but are not true global leaders. He also shows that, in retail banking, the performance of commercial banks is strongly determined by the growth of their home markets." Alan Rugman, Indiana University
"In this important book Robert Grosse shows that, despite the internet, there are few globally active financial institutions and that there are no truly global competitors. Most financial services are still delivered locally: as a notable example, in retail banking the performance of commercial banks is stongly determined by the growth of their home markets. The future of financial services will be local rather than global." Professor Alan Rugman, Kelley School of Business
