Abstract: This paper describes a case study about the major issues and challenges in the development of the electronic banking (e-banking) industry of a relatively underdeveloped nation. This research shows that even in many less developed nations, the application of e-banking can help their local banks reduce operating costs and provide a better and fast service to their customers. The research objectives are to investigate the current trends and developments in e-banking and provide managerial insights for the banking industry in those underdeveloped nations. The collected data are examined through statistical analysis tools. Managerial implications are discussed with suggestions for future research.

Keywords: electronic banking; e-banking; empirical study; developing countries.
