Nikonovich and Blomquist (2005) explain that the reduction of paper-based and manual processes remains an important long-term priority for the largest global banks which is attainable through the move to straight-through processing. Straight-through processing reduces administrative manpower, cost, error, and improves cycle time. IT resources are necessary to support revenue growth. In addition, customized IT products generate additional revenue by attracting new customers. Bridging the gap between the 20th and 21st century require long-term comprehensive IT strategies addressing enterprise architecture, process automation, and customer analytics (Nikonovich & Blomquist, 2005). Transacting is the past. The future of business must be transformational through the use of information systems.

Ethical, social, and political issues are closely related. Ethical issues confront individuals who must choose a course of action, often in a situation in which two or more ethical principles are in conflict. Social issues spring from ethical issues as societies develop expectations in individuals about the correct course of action. Political issues spring from social conflict and are mainly concerned with using the laws that prescribe behavior to create situations in which individuals have to behave correctly (Chapter 4 Ethical and Social Issues p.159).
