| According to a recent survey of financial services carried out by Ernst & Young, as soon as 2002, 14 p.c. of total technology spend will be on electronic commerce. 58 p.c. stated that PC-internet will be the most important area of technology spending, against 1 p.c. for ATMs and 13 p.c. for telephone service centres. Finance asked four banks in Ireland to profile the key person involved with their e-commerce strategy |
