Download or read book Identifying Software Project Risks in the Canadian Financial Services Sector written by John A. Estrella and published by Agilitek Corporation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract (Summary) Frequent occurrence of software project failures has created two general streams of research. One theme analyzed the common causes of cost overruns, late schedules, and unmet scope. With the belief that project failures are avoidable through proactive means, another group of researchers investigated software project risks. With such intent, comparative studies were conducted in Finland, Hong Kong, and the United States. Subsequent research in Nigeria determined the impact of the socioeconomic context. To further extend the coverage of prior studies, the research in the current study focused specifically on the Canadian financial services sector. Project managers were solicited for input to discover, determine, and rank risk factors in software projects using the same research design that was used in previous comparative research studies--a three-phase Delphi survey that uses nonparametric statistical techniques. In sharp contrast to prior studies, however, this research aimed not for general applications of the results at the country level but for specific collective relevance to software projects in banks, trust companies, insurance companies, mutual fund companies, and similar organizations. The composite rankings of the studies in Hong Kong, Finland, and the United States listed lack of management commitment, inability to get user commitment, and misunderstanding of the requirements as the top three risk items in software projects. Given that only the misunderstanding of requirements made it into the top three risk items in Nigeria, it would be of value to scholars and practitioners to determine how the results would differ if the study was conducted in a specific sector in the industry. Except for one risk factor (lack of dedicated, full-time project resources), this study confirmed that the previous list of risk factors captured the top risk factors in the Canadian financial services sector.

This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses the impact of the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the financial sector. It highlights the benefits these technologies bring in terms of financial deepening and efficiency, while raising concerns about its potential in widening the digital divide between advanced and developing economies. The paper advances the discussion on the impact of this technology by distilling and categorizing the unique risks that it could pose to the integrity and stability of the financial system, policy challenges, and potential regulatory approaches. The evolving nature of this technology and its application in finance means that the full extent of its strengths and weaknesses is yet to be fully understood. Given the risk of unexpected pitfalls, countries will need to strengthen prudential oversight.

Download or read book The Risk in Risk Management written by Gregory B Vit and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Banks take very large risks by consistently herding in the same perilous directions while believing they are safe and unique. This book presents a risk management framework to understand conformity and deviance within investment banks and other large organizations. It suggests that some groups understand the dynamics of this conformity to their advantage. This requires a deeper understanding of the risk in risk management. Fraudsters can game the system to their advantage legally and illegally; therefore risk managers must understand the interplay of multiple logics in order to govern and manage risk. Featuring short illustrative cases of massive risk mismanagement, this book walks the reader through four risk management perspectives (economic, institutional, evolutionary and contrarian) that explain why and how economic rationality is overridden by social forces. By understanding conformity and deviance, groups within organizations will be better equipped to manage risk and go against the tides of conformity to their advantage.
