Annual Report 2014/15 1 Contents About the theme The art of Shodo (Japanese Calligraphy) was introduced in 600 AD and involves great concentration and skill in both mind and body. Precision is key as lack of confidence is easily spotted in the deliberate strokes. “Do” which means path is a way of clearing the mind and being in total harmony with oneself. As ink marks paper, we have made our presence felt with a diverse business portfolio. Every brush stroke represents our deliberate actions within the economy and they have changed the industry. We have remained fluid and adaptive and this year stands as a testament to our solidity which has allowed us to be more focused and streamlined. Our confidence has shone through each movement, a vision of clarity, and as we create a fusion with Japanese solidity and processes, we mark the next stage of our growth and the infinite potential that it unlocks for our future.

During the survey, a few researches relevant to the Sri Lankan context were gathered; others were mostly from web sites and international magazines, journals and forums. A wider collection of literature in resource based view, resource complementaries and competitiveness of IT was required for the study and it helped to explain the research problem and suggest solutions. A separate analysis was carried out for the banking industry in Sri Lanka, pointing out the different types of banking sectors namely, licensed commercial banks (LCB) and licensed specialized banks (LSB). 2.2 Information technology in banking sector James (2002) defined Information Technology as ‘Hardware, software, telecommunications, database management, and other information processing technologies used in computer-based information systems.’ Information Systems is defined as ‘Systems that use hardware, software, the internet, other telecommunications networks, computer-based data resource management techniques, and other information technology to transform data resources into an endless variety of information products for consumers and business users.’ In the banking industry, IT applications vary from IT devices, IT systems, IT driven communication technologies and to IT driven marketing technologies. The different usages of such IT applications are numerous; for example in banking sector IT is used as + 8 + + + IT devices, IT systems, IT based communication technologies and IT based marketing technologies. 2.2.1 IT devices IT device is a general term that refers to the physical artifacts of a technology.

  • Assessment of Auction Mechanism
    Additional Financing of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises Line of Credit Project (RRP SRI 49273-002) ASSESSMENT OF AUCTION MECHANISM A. Introduction 1. The original project introduced an auction to allocate the funds among the participating banks. The auctions created a framework where banks made a disbursement commitment and incurred a financial penalty if that disbursement was not achieved. 2. The project conducted two auctions. In the first, National Development Bank (NDB) won the entire $12.5 million available. In the second, the funds were evenly divided among three institutions. 3. The project had planned to review the auction mechanism after the second auction, at which time Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the government would decide whether to continue with the auction or to introduce a more conventional allocation system. Following this review, the government requested the latter so that more banks could participate. 4. Although appreciating the government’s reasons for requesting the cancellation, the project team was overall pleased with the auction’s performance, and the objective of this appendix is to capture any lessons that could be applied to future auction systems. B. Lessons 1. Dominance by a Subset of Banks 5. The government was correct that the auction limited participation. After NDB won all the funds during the first auction, ADB and the government agreed to cap the amount any bank could win to a third of available funds. 6. Despite these changes, the bidding pattern of the first two auctions suggested that a subset of banks would dominate the auctions. Indeed, the same four banks finished in the top five of both rounds (Table 1).
