Rezensionen

"Robert Grosse shows that, despite the internet, most financialservices are still delivered locally; indeed the world's largestinternational financial institutions (such as Allianz and MerrillLynch) are leaders in their home markets but are not true globalleaders. He also shows that, in retail banking, the performance ofcommercial banks is strongly determined by the growth of their homemarkets." Alan Rugman, Indiana University

"In this important book Robert Grosse shows that, despite theinternet, there are few globally active financial institutions andthat there are no truly global competitors. Most financial servicesare still delivered locally: as a notable example, in retailbanking the performance of commercial banks is stongly determinedby the growth of their home markets. The future of financialservices will be local rather than global." Alan Rugman, KelleySchool of Business
