Governments have also taken extensive measures to develop electronic commerce. In these countries, the dynamic and efficient private sector has taken center stage and uses the latest technical developments in its activities. On the other hand, in some advanced developing countries such as Southeast Asian countries, in addition to policy-making and macro-management, governments have provided extensive support for the development of business and electronic banking. The link with the global economy, appropriate economic reforms, development of human resources, economic, legal, technical, telecommunication and communication infrastructure, and a relatively efficient private sector have created suitable conditions for the development of business and electronic banking in these countries.
