M.Com. (International Accounting) / One would be hard-pressed to find an accountant who does not know about the Enron collapse which took place over a decade ago. The scandal was the largest the corporate world had seen at the time, and its impact was significant. Shareholders of the company lost tens of billions of dollars (Jickling, 2002), 4,000 employees lost their jobs (Bratton, 2002), the reputational damage suffered by their auditors Arthur Andersen was severe enough to break up the firm (Fearnley, Brandt & Beattie, 2002) and members of the public stood in awe that this was even possible. This incident was succeeded in following years by more high-profile international corporate scandals involving Tyco International, WorldCom and Parmalat, each one affecting a variety of stakeholders and broader society. The common thread that weaves these corporate collapses together appears to be seized opportunities to misreport financial information. Corporate failures of companies as big as Enron are inclined to give cause for future business regulation (Bratton, 2002). As noted by FearnIey et al. (2002), the Enron collapse provided regulators with an opportunity to reconsider fundamental issues associated with the regulatory framework for corporate financial reporting. Bratton (2002) explains that numerous regulatory-related concerns had been implicated prior to the completion of the Enron investigation. As with the demise of the other companies, the cause thereof involved questionable practices, particularly relating to the accounting treatment of transactions and the reporting of the financial position and performance to the users of financial statements. The result was that stakeholders of the entities did not have access to accurate and complete information regarding the entity in order to make sound economic decisions. This phenomenon is referred to as information asymmetry (Gaffikin, 2008).

A major financial sector reform program has been implemented in Ghana since the early 1980s, involving financial liberalization and institutional reforms. Financial reforms became necessary, because the pre-reform policies together with acute and prolonged economic crisis had severely damaged the financial system. In the early 1990s, the government launched financial market liberalization policies under the financial sector adjustment program to restructure the distressed banks and clean up nonperforming assets in order to restore banks to profitability and viability. The study investigated the market structure of Ghana's banking industry and determined whether the market structure has been changed after the financial restructuring. This study specifically measures the degree of competition of the banking system in Ghana by using the H-statistic. Various studies on the degree of competition were reviewed. This study employs a widely used nonstructural methodology put forward by Panzar and Rosse (1987)--the H-statistic-- and draws upon comprehensive average annual data from the various issues of the Bank of Ghana annual reports from 1988 to 2008. Maximum likelihood techniques were used to estimate the model. Based on the reported H-statistic for pre and postliberalization (2.35657 and 3.27530 respectively), it can be concluded that Ghana's banks are operating under perfect competition. However, the test for a change in competition status at the time of liberalization was not significant, indicating no evidence of a change in competition as a result of liberalization. The result of the market equilibrium reveals that the market equilibrium equals zero, revealing the existence of long-run equilibrium making the Panzar and Rosse model meaningful to interpret. The findings are consistent with the results obtained by Yuan (2006) who found Chinese banking market to be near perfect competition. This study has extended and strengthened some earlier results on bank competition in Ghana. However, the results of this study are different from the study undertaken by Buchs and Mathisen (2005), who found Ghanaian banking markets to operate under monopolistic conditions without considering the effect of liberalization. Three innovations of the current study are the use of comprehensive data source, the consideration of longer period of time covering two decades (1988-2008) and the incorporation of liberalization factors. Overall, the Panzar and Rosse model is regarded as a valuable tool for assessing the banking market conditions in Ghana. Since a bank's revenue is more likely to be observable than output prices and quantities or actual costs.

In many developing economies, access to and subsequent utilisation of mainstream financial services act as a barrier to financial inclusion. The merging of financial services and information technology, especially by means of mobile devices, result in consumers being able to make use of financial services at any time and place, thereby overcoming the distribution challenges and subsequent use (Gu, Lee, & Suh, 2009). This research examined the factors influencing the continued use of tech-based financial services post adoption by the Base of the Pyramid (BOP) in South Africa. The research uses the risk-benefit framework to understand usage behaviour focusing on cost, convenience, perceived ease of use and risk (security and operational) as predictor variables. The research makes use of analysed secondary data on 481 low-income individuals using the Structural equation modelling (SEM).The partial least squares structural modelling was utilised to test the hypotheses and relationship between the variables. The findings indicate that perceived benefit has a greater influence on usage than perceived risk. Even though consumers consider both benefit and risk in decision making, the expectation of potential benefits is a greater driver of usage. Convenience, cost and perceived ease of use were found to have significant impacts on usage, with the latter two having the greatest impacts. Perceived risk had a significant but weak impact on usage, with operating risk influencing usage more than security risk. The research recommends that when creating a value proposition for Fintech products, resources should be weighted more towards improving and highlighting those factors that drive the perception of benefit or value added to customers (cheaper, quicker etc.) vs. those that manage a potential risk. Customers are likely to respond positively and increase usage when there is an additional benefit to be derived.
