Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The introduction of new service models in the banking industry can indeed offer convenience to customers and attract more potential customers. However, for the banking industry, whether the introduction of new service models will require a lot of resources to build related information systems, reduce the profitability of the external environment, and consume a lot of internal costs is a topic worthy of in-depth discussion and very important for the rapid changes in contemporary information.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect research articles which focus on discussing banks’ choice to introduce new service models, investing more actively in information technology related to operations, and quickly facing market responses. The pressure of competition among industries can be used to understand the impact of market investors’ active investment in the banking industry on the company’s value. It is hoped that through the completion of this Special Issue, new contributions to the current research on mobile finance research topics such as the relationship between financial indicators, innovative service theories, and business performance can be achieved.

The significance of human resources (HRs) has increased with the increasing awareness of sustainability issues and corporate social responsibility. However, the rapidly emerging financial technology (FinTech) sector still presents an HR challenge. Southeast Asia, which accounts for the highest adoption rate of mobile banking, has set new records regarding the number of transactions, as well as funding amount, in recent years. Moreover, borderless financial cooperation, coupled with in-demand tech talents, will rapidly boost the development of the region. Thus, this study explored the new opportunities as well as challenges of a new business model, FinTech, in Southeast Asia’s banking and enterprise sector in the post-COVID-19 era. It also examined how organizations can achieve sustainable development via the interaction of the new operating model with existing ones by developing relevant strategies in the context of the “new normal” working condition. By reviewing the literature on HR management (HRM), we proposed how banking and FinTech companies could supply tech talent with the relevant experience or engage in training projects before recruiting. Additionally, since organizations desire sustainability-minded employees, they offer flexible working arrangements and well-established reward policies that can create remote work performance and retention rates. Being committed to upskilling and reskilling global talent by offering talent mobility opportunities across the organization, as well as by fully embracing the creation of value for cross-cultural talent, companies can support their employees’ long-term career goals and maintain competitive strength. Finally, organizations must focus more on flexible adjustments and cross-domain communication for global talent. Forming strategic alliances with FinTech companies would be an alternative conduit that can ensure that regional laws comply with the local culture and national law, for bias and conflict reduction.
