Exploratory study of market entry strategies for digital payment platformsMarcinkowska, Anna January 2018 (has links)
The digital payment industry has become one of the fastest evolving markets in the world, but in the wake of its rapid advancement, an ever increasing gap between academic theory and the actual reality of this market widens - and especially so when it comes to entry theory. It is widely acknowledged that the world is moving towards an ever more homogeneous economy, but despite the fact that payment preferences differ greatly from country to country - research on this subject continues to revolve mainly around localized efforts. But as historical inequalities between poor and rich societies continue to dissipate - learning from nations at the forefront of technological advancement increases the likelihood that the developed strategy becomes applicable to an increased number of countries. By selecting a nation most conducive to technological growth, the purpose of this report is to map the present dynamics in its digital payment industry using both recent and traditional market entry theory. However, studies geared towards globalized strategy formulation cannot be assumed as having guaranteed access to internal company-data at all times. So in order to facilitate such studies, the level of dependency on primary data required for conducting such research needs to be understood first, which is why the work in this report is constrained strictly to data of secondary nature. This, not only to further map the characteristics of this market, but also to see how open the market is to public inspection. Ultimately, the academic contribution becomes that of providing a road-map towards adapting currently available market entry theory to suit the rapidly evolving conditions of the digital payment industry from a global perspective and, when failing to do so, the aim is to also explore avenues for further research towards this end goal.

An annotated translation of the manuscript Irshad Al-MuqallidinʾInda Ikhtilaf Al-Mujtahidin (Advice to the laity when the juristconsults differ) by Abu Muhammad Al-Shaykh Sidiya Baba Ibn Al-Shaykh Al-Shinqiti Al-Itisha- I (D. 1921/1342) and a synopsis and commentary of its dominant themesGamieldien, Mogamad Faaik 06 1900 (has links)
Text in English and Arabic / In pre-colonial Africa, the Southwestern Sahara which includes
Mauritania, Mali and Senegal belonged to what was then referred to as
the Sudan and extended from the Atlantic seaboard to the Red Sea. The
advent of Islam and the Arabic language to West Africa in the 11th
century heralded an intellectual marathon whose literary output still
fascinates us today. At a time when Europe was emerging from the dark
ages and Africa was for most Europeans a terra incognita, indigenous
African scholars were composing treatises as diverse as mathematics,
agriculture and the Islamic sciences.
A twentieth century Mauritanian, Arabic monograph, Irshād al-
Muqallidīn ʿinda ikhtilāf al-Mujtahidīn1, written circa 1910/1332, by a
yet unknown Mauritanian jurist of the Mālikī School, Bāba bin al-Shaykh
Sīdī al- Shinqīṭī al-Ntishā-ī (d.1920/1342), a member of the muchacclaimed
Shinqīṭī fraternity of scholars, is a fine example of African
literary accomplishment.
This manuscript hereinafter referred to as the Irshād, is written within the
legal framework of Islamic jurisprudence (usūl al-fiqh). A science that
relies for the most part on the intellectual and interpretive competence of
the independent jurist, or mujtahid, in the application of the
methodologies employed in the extraction of legal norms from the
primary sources of the sharīʿah. The subject matter of the Irshād deals
with the question of juristic differences. Juristic differences invariably
arise when a mujtahid exercises his academic freedom to clarify or resolve
conundrums in the law and to postulate legal norms. Other independent
jurists (mujtahidūn) may posit different legal norms because of the
exercise of their individual interpretive skills. These differences, when
they are deemed juristically irreconcilable, are called ikhtilāfāt (pl. of
ikhtilāf).
The author of the Irshād explores a corollary of the ikhtilāf narrative and
posits the hypothesis that there ought not to be ikhtilāf in the sharīʿah.
The proposed research will comprise an annotated translation of the
monograph followed by a synopsis and commentary on its dominant
themes. / Religious Studies and Arabic / D. Litt. et Phil. (Islamic Studies)
