Currently, virtual banking exists in the forms of ATM, phone banking, home banking and Internet banking. Understanding people's adoption intention of virtual banking can help financial institutions formulate appropriate marketing strategies for new forms of banking. This paper examines the current trends in the Internet revolution that have set in motion in the Chinese banking sector, and reports on an empirical research carried out in China to study the customers' preference for virtual banking and the factors which they consider influence the adoption of virtual banking.展开更多

With today’s advances in technology, regarding lifting almost all processes to automation, from start of production to finish, there is a need for revolution in archaic monetary management institutes. By not being in tune with the contemporary trends and times, banks are losing on an opportunity to transform some of their business models and relieve humans of repetitive work, prevent frauds, make better decisions and consequently gain losses. Banks can engage in implementation of new Virtual Assistants and Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) machine learning technologies, just as the other industries have engaged in modernizing <i>i.e. </i> medical checks, medical reports and evaluations, and this research paper will elaborate and emphasize the impact of artificial intelligence implementation on the banking sector processes. This research is based on both quantitative and model-based proofs of system performance by using several analytical tools, such as SPSS. The automation process helps institutions to enhance profitability, performance and to reduce human dependency. In a nutshell, Virtual Assistants powered with Artificial Intelligence improve the business process performance in every sector of business, especially the banking sector making it fast, reliable and not human dependent.展开更多

Comparing relative exploitation rate(ratio of fishery catch at age to survey abundance indices at age) with total mortality calculated from the age distribution in surveys indicated a conflict when constant natural mortality was assumed. This inconsistency implies an increase in natural mortality since the mid-1990 s. In this paper, natural mortality estimated by Virtual Population Analysis(VPA) indicated that natural mortality for this stock has increased to 0.8 since the mid-1990 s for ages 6+. Potential factors contributing to this elevated natural mortality, including poor fish conditions and increased losses due to seal predation were discussed.展开更多
