Competitive threats are likely to emerge from more unsuspecting places. Logistics firms, such as Federal Express and UPS, are well equipped to deal with the transfer of goods and information and the management of money. They currently own the process for transferring goods and information; we could expect them to take ownership of the transfer of money as well. The Deloitte and Touche study speculates that “it would not be surprising to see a joint venture between say Deutsche Telecom and Quelle, the large German mail order firm, in which they jointly undertook to design and distribute financial service products.”(This hypothetical merger was the subject of a recent article in The
Economist.) 竞争的威胁很可能出现自比较没有怀疑的地方。物流企业、例如联邦快递和UPS有很好的配备以处理货物和信息的传递和钱的管理。他们目前拥有用于传递货物和信息的程序；我们也可以期望他们取得传递钱的所有权。德勤会计师事务所推测“看到例如德国电信和Quell邮购公司之间的合资企业，在合资企业中他们联合进行金融服务产品的设计和销售将不会令人惊奇”（这一假想的合并是“经济学家”杂志最近论文的主题）。
