"Andern sich die Marktbedingungen, so muss das Geschäftsmodell einer Bank un­ weigerlich adaptiert werden. Die Finanzkrise und - vielleicht wichtiger - die Angriffe auf das Bankgeheimnis stellen ohne Zweifel eine epochale Wende im Private Banking dar. Unklar bleibt lediglich, in welche Richtung sich die Branche verändern wird. Das Private Banking ist ein besonderes Geschäftsfeld, wenn man es unter dem Aspekt der Veränderungsbereitschaft in der Vergangenheit betrachtet. Vor großer Innovationskraft und Veränderungswillen strotzte die Branche nicht. Warum sollte man auch das Risiko einer Anderung oder echten Innovation auf sich nehmen - die Private-Banking-Branche blickt auf Jahrzehnte erfolgreicher Geschäftsabschlüsse zurück. Die Geschäftsmodelle der Anbieter im Private Banking sind folgerichtig alle sehr ähnlich aufgebaut und unterscheiden sich in den zentralen Punkten kaum. Ein Trugschluss wäre es allerdings zu glauben, dass die großen aktuellen Veränderungen keine weit reichenden Anpassungen bei den Anbietern von Private Banking auslösen werden. Als Private-Banking-Kunde steht man vor der Wahl, für die zuverlässige Verwaltung und Vermehrung seines Vermögens das bestgeeignete Finanzinstitut auszuwählen. Keine einfache Aufgabe in der komplexen Welt der Finanzen. Der Kunde sollte sich dabei nicht von Äußerlichkeiten blenden lassen, sondern sich auf die Kerninhalte guter Vermögensverwaltung konzentrieren. Dabei wird gerne und etwas plakativ das Stichwort ""Qualität"" bemüht. Dies führt zur ersten wichtigen Frage: Was bedeutet Qualität im Private Banking bzw. was ist gutes Private Banking? Ein intensives Nachdenken über diese Frage ist aufgrund der Syslemmängel der Branche, welche durch die Finanzkrise aufgedeckt wurden, höchst dringlich."

Es­ pecially investments in new and more efficient technologies are an impor­ tant determinant. In particular, in the last two decades an increasing part of the investment expenditures concerns investments in informa­ tion and communication technology. Kriebel, 1989 notes that (already) in 1989 roughly 50 percent of new corporate capital expenditures by major United States companies was in information and communication technology. Due to the rapid progress in these technologies, the tech­ nology investment decision of the individual firm has become a very complex matter. As an example of the very high pace of technological improvement consider the market for personal computers. IBM intro­ duced its Pentium personal computers in the early 1990s at the same price at which it introduced its 80286 personal computers in the 1980s. Therefore it took less than a decade to improve on the order of twenty times in terms of both speed and memory capacities, without increasing the cost (Yorukoglu, 1998).
