FINANCIAL SERVICES PROVIDERS ARE EXPOSED TO DIFFERENT SOURCES OF INSTITUTIONAL PRESSURE ARISING FROM THE INTENSE COMPETITION AND REGULATION IN THE BANKING SECTOR. AGAINST THIS BACKGROUND, THIS ARTICLE ANALYZES THE DETERMINANTS OF GRID ASSIMILATION AND THE ROLE OF INSTITUTIONAL PRESSURE IN THE GRID ASSIMILATION PROCESS.
ESPECIALLY IN THE FINANCiAL SERVICES INDUSTRY, FAST ACCESS TO COMMUNICATION NETWORKS AS WELL AS THE AVAILABILITY OF A HIGH-PERFORMANCE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY (ICT) INFRASTRUCTURE IS INDISPENSABLE TO ACCELERATE DIGITAL BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN GEOGRAPHICALLY DISPERSED ORGANIZATIONS. SINCE COLOCATION AS AN ICT SOURCING STRATEGY MAY LEAD TO INCREASED OPERATIONAL AGILITY, WE CONDUCTED AN EMPIRICAL STUDY TO INVESTIGATE THE POTENTIAL BUSINESS VALUE GENERATION.
