Abstract
Electronic banking has been successfully adopted by developed countries and has been fully embraced by all the stakeholders active in the process. But developing countries are still lagging behind to fully embrace the benefits of e-banking. This paper explores Technical and legal factors impacting e-banking adoption in India. The research framework consists of two dimensions; technology and legal; to guide and constrain the scope of study. The findings are based on literature study of models and implementation experience of e-banking in India. The purpose of this study is to offer insights into the current e-banking adoption situation and its implications for e-banking growth in India as an example of a developing country.
Research Question: What are technical and legal challenges for adopting electronic banking system in India?
