  • Appropriate regulatory measures provide the legal framework for combating fraud in e-payments

 

  1. Research objectives
    • To identify regulatory approaches to combating fraud in e-payment
    • To establish the effectiveness or available regulatory measures to combating fraud in e-payment
    • To compare fraud regulatory measures in Saudi Arabia and the EU
  2. Research questions
    • effective regulation of fraud in e-payments?

Saudi Arabia, so you just make that clear, in your research questions to say, compare contrasting Saudi Arabia to the approach of the EU through the example of Sweden, how can Saudi Arabia improve its approach to fraud through E payments that isn’t to say that everything you’re gonna you’re gonna research will be that Sweden is better than Saudi Arabia. That’s not the aim of this comparison. There’ll be points where you’re gonna find that actually, Saudi Arabia is doing things better than Sweden, there may be something pre existing that means that the approach of Saudi Arabia already works or is better fitting than taking something from Sweden so you don’t want to have it? It doesn’t need to be that you already had this predisposed view that one jurisdiction is better than the other. It’s more a case about where in Sweden X is being done. This is effective can it be done in Saudi Arabia? Or you might find that there are things about finance in Saudi Arabia that means things don’t work that are being used in Sweden. That’s all that’s absolutely fine to to identify and you want to analyze that in your project.

 

What is the aim of the comparison? Are you expecting to find one better than the other?

 

So you’re an ASIC. You’re, you know, you’re comparing it because you want to look at the appropriateness and the effectiveness of the law. But you need to tell the reader that’s why you’re comparing some of this will feel a bit like stating the obvious, but you need to make it clear what direction you’re going in. And so the thing is, like, Are you looking to which jurisdiction or you’re going to make recommendations for Saudi Arabia

 

As above, think about the aims of your comparison
