Cash-Flow Model for Efficiency Evaluation in Multinational Trade Enterprises Applying E-Commerce

In this study, the authors have investigated e-commerce in the activity of multinational trade enterprises (MNTEs) and highlighted the main differences between online and offline trade. Many studies are focusing on the application of e-commerce technologies but not on providing efficiency evaluation tool helping to identify how e-commerce technologies change trade business and propose its application in MNTEs. This research aims to provide the cash-flow model for an economic evaluation of investment and operations of e-commerce and traditional trade and the practical application of the model in MNTEs. To achieve this objective, the authors have proposed a cash-flow model useful for efficiency evaluation and its practical application. According to the case study analysis, trade enterprises which apply e-commerce technologies have approximately 3.7 times fewer employees and 3.1 times fewer investments in long-term tangible assets than other trade enterprises. However, MNTEs performing online business have 5.1 times fewer employees than MNTEs operating in offline. Of course, these numbers depend significantly on business size and the economies of scale. The study consists of three parts. In the first one, the paper discloses trade business changes determined by the investments into e-commerce. These results are presented on multinational and national business and disclose how actively multinational enterprises (the Mother Companies and their branches) and national ones invest in e-commerce. In the second part, the new cash-flow model is used for efficiency evaluation when trade firms practice e-commerce technologies. In the third part of this paper, the practical application of the model was delivered. Herein several trade MNTEs with and without e-commerce technologies are compared.

Credit Card Fraud Detection: Advanced Real-time Application of Deep Sequential Models

In contemporary times, the rapid growth of e-commerce technologies has rendered it possible for people to select the most popular items in terms of recommended price, quality and quantity among various services, facilities, shops and stores from all around the world. Intriguingly enough, the ease of doing things has also made it easier for fraudsters to abuse this huge opportunity. As credit card has emerged to be the most popular mode of payment, the fraudulent activities using credit card payment technologies are fast increasing as a result. Therefore, it is inevitable for a financial institution to think of an automatic and fool-proof prevention mechanism to detect and prevent fraudulent activities. Although many works have been done in this area using traditional statistical and machine learning methods, they suffer from deficiencies as most of them have not taken the sequential nature of transactional data into account. In this paper, we propose an assembly model based on sequential modeling of data using deep recurrent neural networks and a novel selection mechanism based on an artificial neural network to detect fraudulent actions. As the experiments demonstrated, our suggested model outperforms the advanced models in all assessment criteria.

Challenges of E-commerce Adoption in the Ghanaian Hotel Industry

Electronic-commerce has become an important channel for conducting business. Researchers as well as market executives are trying to better understand online consumer behavior. The internet offers customers, businesses among others, inexpensive and convenient way of conducting online business. Vigorous, consistent, trusted and efficient e-commerce systems have become very essential to the development of all major economies especially a developing country like Ghana. To remain relevant in today’s global competitiveness, developing countries (Ghana) must adopt a safe and reliable electronic commerce system which will serve as the backbone for economic development. In the process of e-commerce adoption, encouraging the acceptance of consumers becomes a crucial factor.The main rationale of this study is to investigate the challenges of e-commerce adoption in the hotel industry from the consumers’ perspective in Ghana. Many studies and models have inspired technology and information systems research. Factors that retard consumers’ predisposition or decision to adopt have been well captured. However, studies on e-commerce adoption in the hotel industry are not so evident in Africa especially Ghana. In particular, this study applied the theory of technology acceptance model (TAM) to explore customers’ adoption of an e-commerce technology in Ghana. The proposed model in the context of this study was tested quantitatively. In order to underscore the causal effects of the independent variables on the dependent variable (e-commerce adoption), a structural equation modelling was employed to analyse the data. Data was collected and analyzed from a representative sample size of 300 respondents selected across the capital of Ghana. A survey questionnaire type was administered to users of hotel related self-service systems (hotel check-in, in –room video viewing, video gaming on demand, hotel booking, and hotel reservation) in Ghana. Respondents were made to answer closed-ended questions constructed in accordance to, technology acceptance model and other prior attempts to establish similar relationship in the existing empirical literature on e-commerce adoption. In summary, this study makes significant contribution to theory with respect to exploring challenges affecting e-commerce adoption by consumers in Ghana. Additionally, this study makes contribution to theory in e-commerce adoption literature in Ghana. It also provides a socially constructed view of the antecedents of e-commerce adoption in a developing country context. Strategies for improving e-commerce development in Ghana are presented in addition to the managerial implications of the research finding General Terms: E-Commerce, Hotel Industry Keywords: Adoption, E-Commerce, Hotel Industry.

Combating the Illicit Trafficking of Cultural Property: The Multifaceted Response to a Complex Challenge

Abstract In recent years the phenomenon of the illicit trafficking in cultural assets has been addressed by international and European lawmakers as an important phenomenon within the complex criminal networks used for the financing of international terrorism. The factors that contribute most to its development include in particular the availability of advanced technologies for plundering archaeological sites and e-commerce, which has sped up trade by breaking down space-time barriers, along also with armed conflict, political instability and poverty. In order to bring about change and put an end to the phenomenon, some significant legislative choices have recently been implemented in the European Union. The aim is to create a regime that is as uniform as possible along with a network of standardised controls capable of intercepting illicit trafficking. The concerns of art market operators surrounding the introduction of new rules and regulations can be appreciated if it is considered that the vibrant lawful market of artworks operates in accordance with tried and tested arrangements. This article will seek to provide an account of the phenomenon in its full complexity, highlighting the most significant recent developments within the European Union. It will also discuss the role of information and digital technologies in the area of cultural heritage. In particular, the existing European legal framework represented by the main legal instruments adopted by the international community and by the European Union will be sketched out, including both civil law and criminal law responses to the illicit trafficking of cultural heritage. Within this context the importance of the issues of traceability within art transactions, which are mostly paper-based, will be investigated along with other related issues such as digital tracking of artworks (digital passports), art security systems and authentication technologies.

Public-Key applications in E-commerce

Globalization and regulatory change: The interplay of laws and technologies in E-commerce in Southeast Asia

Electronic commerce has brought about business and technological changes globally, and these global changes have given rise to major legal reforms across nations. In the fast-changing global digital economy, states need strategies to maintain competitiveness of their markets while simultaneously ensuring the secure and effective use of technologies involved in conducting electronic transactions. This paper examines how the use and recognition of electronic signatures are regulated in Southeast Asia – the region that has shown the most significant growth in global e-commerce in past few years. Based on a comparative analysis of the laws of four representative ASEAN member states – namely Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam, this paper argues that there is a regional trend towards adopting more liberal and technology-neutral standards for electronic signatures. Electronic signature regulation in Southeast Asia is now built upon limited technological neutrality (or the so-called “two-tiered” approach) as a shared regulatory understanding, but this approach is operationalized differently in each state due to distinctive national contexts. Within the common legal framework, each state has developed its own system of control and management with respect to higher-level signatures (using advanced technologies). The principle of technological neutrality, a concept originally developed for the regulation of technologies in response to the liberalization of telecommunications market, has been the central theme of discussions on the e-transactions policy-making scene. As the author shows, in the process through which states localize the global standards of technological neutrality, ASEAN as a vehicle of regulatory change has played an essential role in translating this principle to the national context.
