There will always be someone who takes control of things. Those who are innately dominant will often possess a strong influence over others; some people in society have a tendency to lead while others follow. However, when the effect of power is negative, it becomes able to destroy the very thing it has control of. In Pedagogy of the Oppressed, the author, Paulo Freire, highlights such negativities in the classroom setting in an education system he calls the “banking concept”. This idea prevents active thinking and instead, the students absorb empty facts, keeping them stored in their memory. Although he discusses the alternative, more positive “problem-posing” concept, the banking principle seems to be more prominent in Chinua Achebe’s Things

Technological advancement has had a gigantic effect in the banking industry. Over the past few decades, the financial services industry has changed considerably with banking transforming from the pen and paper method to the computers and internet method. The pen and paper method took weeks or even months for the transaction to be eventually completed, and then the dramatic introduction of the computer and internet method which changed that time frame to only a matter of seconds to be completed, which reduced the amount of time and labor needed to complete a transaction significantly. Banking is considered one of the most important economic sectors with it being severely influential and responsive to any little change, whether it is domestic or international. Some extreme changes that were brought about by the development of this new technology turned into a globalized nature for the financial services industry. One stroke of a key on a computer could and would change a person 's life extensively or even have a global impact. The new technologies that were created and introduced changed how the consumers managed their money from that time on. Technology has helped to protect peoples’ hard earned money and make it much more impossible for people to be able to write out bad checks or even holding up a bank. The advancement in technology however, also came with some security risks as most things do, that could affect the money that people trusted with the bank and

The use, acceptance, adoption and application of internet technology to businesses to boast their performances are not something new. Saffu et al., (2008), states that there has been a significant increase in the use and application of e-commerce in businesses in the past decade. E-commerce has benefits such as reduction in costs, increased business opportunities, reduced lead time and providing more personalized service to the customers (Turban et al., 2008).

The main objective of implementing ICT in an organization is to enable it achieve its goals.

The banking industry started long time ago to provide financial services to merchants in Athens, Venice, Genoa, Florence, and other commercial cities (Conant, 1915). Coins and banknotes were used to facilitate trading and exchanging goods. As the idea of money movement grew, central banks were developed to act as a third party center of trust (Rousseau & Sylla, 2003). For decades, banks used to work in the same manner using the same traditional business models as banknotes and paper records. In 1967, the first ATM machine was introduced (Kumbhar, 2011). The SWIFT foundation was then established in 1973 to secure money transactions between different banks. Swift messages do not transfer money; they just send PO (Payment Orders) that must be settled by financial institutions worldwide (Scott & Zachariadis, 2014). Recently, new changes took place in the surrounding environment where new digital products appeared, regulations were mandated, and customer behavior patterns were developed (Hirst, 2017). Bitcoin was introduced in 2009, though still not used in traditional banks, but it has emerged a new era of digitizing money and is considered as internet of money (Ali, et al., 2014). With these rapid changes, the need for strong credit scoring systems increases. Some countries have strict scoring systems based on customers’ historical loans and payments records, while other countries have less strict systems where people simply get

But the study conducted by (Chiemeke et al, 2000) on the adoption of e- banking in Nigeria identified the major inhibiting factors to e- banking in Nigeria such as insecurity, inadequate operational facilities including telecommunications facilities and electricity supply. The inhibiting factors encountered in Nigeria is not different from Malawian experience because the efficiency and effectiveness of e – banking service delivery largely depends on the other stakeholders roles such availability of network which is being provided by Malawi Telecommunication Limited (MTL) and Electricity supply Commission of Malawi (ESCOM) for the supply of

However there 's a scare knowledge of the public 's understanding of this. Data was collected through a questionnaire and analysed using a chi-squared analysis. Through student and nonstudent participants sampling approach no significant differences were observed between group understandings of new banking crimes and found that they had identical ranking of responses. Additionally using an approach by Schuman and Scott (1987), half the participants were asked open questions and the other closed questions, this also highlighted the impact of question form on ranking of responses and showed no definate ordering of response choices could be made.

Basel III consists of a comprehensive set of reform measures intended to improve the regulation, supervision and risk management of the banking sector (APRA 2013). Being developed mainly in response to the credit crisis of 2007, it requires banks to maintain adequate leverage ratios and meet certain capital requirements. Basel III builds on the basis of previous Basel I and Basel II and is aimed at improving the banking sector’s ability to deal with financial stress and turmoil, strengthen the banking sectors transparency and improve risk management (Investopedia 2015).

Associations are gaining more innovation frameworks to aid in everything from assembling to the administration of data to the procurement and change of client administration. Outfitting and facilitating this registering force is the test. New instruments and creative points of view with which to look at, translate, and understand these quickly developing situations are constantly required and looked for (Beard, 1996).
