Web Trade Technologies: Challenges, Opportunities & Threats

  • Tax systems treat transactions equally, regardless of whether such transactions occur through electronic means or through more conventional means of commerce

    • How e-commerce affect the firm's relationship with suppliers and customers?

    E-commerce considerably affects a firm's relationships with both supplier and customers.

  • Once a buyer and supplier decide to engage in B2B e-commerce, they must decide to make joint investments in their Internet infrastructure to coordinate their transactions better. This requires a certain financial capacity.

  • The main issues arising from trade over the Internet are those related to trust and reliability. Breaches in safety and privacy may result in the buyer being charged for a purchase without receiving the corresponding goods, or in the supplier producing the items only to have the order cancelled.

    • Do a firm who want to use e-commerce need to reconfigure its supply chain?

    E-commerce renders some functions and intermediaries (such as export intermediaries and warehouses) unnecessary. Hence engaging in e-commerce often demands a restructuring of firm's supply chain to obtain optimum benefits from e-commerce.

    Should there be coalitions of consumers?

    Coalition of consumers gives them benefit of economies of scale, i.e., lower costs resulting from large-scale buying.
