Recommendation
We at the Ethical center, recommend that News Limited considers society’s change of opinions about the company and loss of confidence after phone-hacking scandal, the law change of limiting the expansion of the company and unethical employment as the most significant organizational behavioral issues afflicting the company.
Rationale
The reason why News Limited should consider these three issues is because there will be a large loss of market share if readers, or may better say customers, in the society change the opinions about underlying values and beliefs of News Limited and loss confidence of their future behavior; the change of laws may limit its expansion; and the unethical employment may lead to social issue in the long term.

The phone-hacking scandal of one of the News Corporation subsidiaries- News of the World reflects the whole entire business. One of Murdoch’s former top executive said Murdoch invented and established this culture in the newsroom, where you do whatever it takes to get the story, take no prisoners, destroy the competition, and the end will justify the means. As being Australian arm of News Corporation, News Limited tends to be suspected that they share the same underlying value and belief as all the other subsidiaries of Murdoch’s media empire, which drives them to behave similarly. Professor Rolph, from faculty of Law at University of Sydney, said even though there is no evidence that this conduct has occurred in Australia, what mostly like to occur is an enforceable act to privacy as a result. People will defend the news that is sourced unethically. However, the Former chairman and CEO of News Ltd, John Hartigan said, the culture in News Limited is so different from that in UK. People refer a lot of the media as “red tops’ in the UK. They are very aggressive newspaper; they are very sensational, dealing with people’s private lives. He would argue very strenuously that they don’t have those behaviors in Australia. While the society and people tend to believe the fact that happened rather than the speech of CEO. News Ltd controls 70 percent of the nation's news readership, including eight of the 12 major daily newspapers in Australia, as well as the only national newspaper, The Australian, Professor Rolph said the scandal may also lead to a review on concentration of media ownership in Australia. Dr. Denis Muller, who is an expert in media ethics and accountability from the University of Melbourne, shared the same view, saying that it is possible that the parliament might revise the media ownership laws with a view to limiting any Murdoch expansion in television and other electronic media. CR: Australia has always been less interfere privacy of news??? Rebuttal: trend~

Murdoch had previously been criticized for building a media empire that lacked any ethical base and replacing responsible journalism with "gossip, sensationalism, and manufactured controversy." A professor of journalism at State University of New York accused Murdoch of building the most "dishonest, unprincipled and corrupt" media empire in history. People process management of News Limited should not be influenced by Murdoch culture when making decision. Talk about something how it should hire people. CR: more interesting news yields more profit. Rebuttal: Like News of the world stewed in its own juice, ultimately unethical employee behavior will lead to a failure of the business. Plus, due to deontological theory that the rightness or wrongness depends on the inherent intention rather than the consequences, although there might be a chance to generate higher profit, it is not ethical to recruit immoral employees who get their jobs done by unethical way.

...The Australian Financial System in the 2000s: Dodging the Bullet Kevin Davis* Abstract The global financial crisis (GFC) occupied only a quarter of the decade of the 2000s but, because of its severity and implications for future financial sector development, dominates the decade. The Australian financial system coped relatively well with the GFC, raising the question of whether there was something special about its structure and prior evolution which explains that experience. This paper reviews Australian financial sector performance and development over the decade, then provides a more detailed overview of the Australian GFC experience and its implications, and considers explanations for the Australian financial sector resilience. 1. Introduction The Australian (and global) financial system entered the first decade of the millennium preparing for a systems crisis, in the form of the Y2K computer scare, which on 1 January 2000 passed without event. But towards the end of the decade, the financial sector was faced with, arguably, its most serious systemic crisis ever, which the Australian financial system and economy weathered relatively well compared with advanced nations in the northern hemisphere.1 While the GFC occupied only one-quarter of the past decade (from mid 2007), it prompts the questions which this review must seek to answer. Was there something about the structure and evolution of the Australian financial system which explained its resilience in the face...

Standard Chartered Bank Customer Satisfaction

...Chapter 1: Introduction SME finance is the funding of small and medium sized enterprises, and represents a major function of the general business finance market – in which capital for different types of firms are supplied, acquired, and costed or priced. Capital is supplied through the business finance market in the form of bank loans and overdrafts; leasing and hire-purchase arrangements; equity/corporate bond issues; venture capital or private equity; and asset-based finance such as factoring and invoice discounting. Small & Medium Enterprises, commonly known as SMEs, are relating to three types of sectors,( Service, Business & Industry ) typically labor intensive industries with relatively low capital intensity. For a country like Bangladesh where labor is abundant and capital scarce, SME plays a significant role in employment generation, poverty reduction and overall economic growth of our country. SMEs may not always have the same access to banks and financial institutions as larger firms. Banks are reluctant to expand their SME credit portfolio because lending to SMEs was not considered to be attractive and profitable undertaking. SMEs are regarded as high risk borrowers because of their low capitalization, insufficient assets and inability to comply with collateral requirements of the banks. Administrative costs are also higher because of close monitoring and supervision and credit management of the SME portfolio. Despite all these facts, banks and financial institutions...

...ASA University Review, Vol. 4 No. 1, January–June, 2010 Measuring Service Quality: A Comparative Analysis Between Standard Chartered Bank and Dhaka Bank Mohd. Takdir Hossan* Abstract This study compares the quality of services provided by Standard Chartered Bank and Dhaka Bank Ltd in Bangladesh. The premise of the paper is that the quality of bank’s services would be contingent on the incentive structure under which these institutions operate. Since banks are not subsidized and depend on income from clients, they would be more motivated to provide quality services to clients to meet their needs more effectively and efficiently. This premise was supported. Customers’ perception of service quality and key demographic characteristics were also used to predict choice of banks. Key Words: Customers Expectation, Perception and Satisfaction Introduction The Jews in Jerusalem introduced a kind of banking in the form of money lending before the birth of Jesus Christ. The word 'bank' was probably derived from the word 'bench' as during ancient time Jews used to do money-lending business sitting on long benches. First modern banking was introduced in 1668 in Stockholm as 'Svingss Pis Bank' that opened up a new era of banking activities throughout the European mainland. In the South Asian region, early banking system was introduced by the Afghan traders popularly known as Kabuliwallas. Muslim businessmen from Kabul, Afghanistan, came to India and started money lending business in...

Iba Report on Banking Sector Report

...Swot banking The rise of retail lending in emerging economies like India has been of recent origin. Asia Pacific’s vast population, combined with high savings rates, explosive economic growth, and underdeveloped retail banking services, provide the most significant growth opportunities for banks. Banks will have to serve the retail banking segment effectively in order to utilize the growth opportunity. Banking strategies are presently undergoing various transformations, as the overall scenario has changed over the last couple of years. Till the recent past, most of the banks had adopted fierce costcutting measures to sustain their competitiveness. This strategy however has become obsolete in the new light of immense growth opportunities for banking industry. Most bankers are now confident about their high performance in terms of organic growth and in realising high returns. Nowadays, the growth strategies of banks revolve around customer satisfaction. Improved customer relationship management can only lead to fulfilment of long-term, as well as, short-term objectives of the bankers. This requires, efficient and accurate customer database management and development of well-trained sales force to develop and sustain long-term profitable customer relationship.
