Implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on market orientation in retail banking
2021
AbstractThis qualitative study examines the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on the implementation of market orientation (MO) in the context of retail banking. The findings show that MO was significantly reflected in the behaviors of banks upon encountering the COVID-19 situation, with the banks increasing their MO in response to the crisis. This study finds subcategories based on the empirical data that explain the implementation of MO in more detail. Overall, the findings provide valuable conceptual and managerial insights into the modus operandi of banks during a crisis and offer new best practices for the banking industry.

Factors influencing mobile banking continuous use in Sub-Sahara Africa : A study of mobile banking users in Nigeria
2019
The ubiquitous diffusion of information and communications technology is fundamentally impacting several sectors. In the financial services sub-sector, the convenience and speed that mobile banking (m-banking) applications offer users have made it one of the most popular applications in use. However, the growth trajectory of the application is questionably different as it has continually seen a decline in the Nigerian market. The aim of this study is therefore to examine the factors influencing m-banking continuous use in an emerging market context by using a hybrid of unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2), uses and gratification, and privacy theories. Survey data were…

2021
The widespread use of digital technologies and the current pandemic (COVID) have fueled the need and call for digital transformation in the banking sector.

These risks are associated with customer retention because a service or product needs to be aligned with customer expectations to avoid them switching to other service providers. Moreover, it can also have an effect on reputa- tion. Offering digita…
