Book The Business of Banking

Book excerpt: This book offers new insights on banking business models, risks and regulation proposals in the aftermath of the European financial crisis. It investigates the main issues affecting the business of banking nowadays, such as low interest rates and non-performing loans. The combined effect of low to negative interest rates and weak economic growth has encouraged banks to shift their business towards new areas less associated with interest rates, which financial markets and institutional investors are currently evaluating. Contributions also shed new light on topics not yet fully investigated by current literature, such as banks’ short selling bans after Brexit, the European Deposit Guarantee Scheme and banks’ risk appetite framework. This book will be of interest to researchers, scholars and practitioners.

Book The New Business of Banking

Download or read book The New Business of Banking written by George M. Bollenbacher and published by Irwin Professional Publishing. This book was released on 1992 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Business of Banking: Surviving and Thriving in Times of Unparalleled Consolidation and Competition by George M. Bollenbacher shows financial institutions how they can be among the winners in their field. It takes an eye-opening, positive point of view, focusing on what the winners are doing, how they are doing it and how to become a leader in the new era of financial services. With the spectacular collapse of BCCI, a $70 billion bailout of the FDIC and one complete segment of the industry, the savings and loan associations, poised on the edge of extinction, it's apparent that banks are reflecting the economic conditions of the country. Financial institutions appear to be caught in a maelstrom of disaster. In fact, the banking industry is already restructuring itself into what will eventually become a much smaller group of winners. But bankers have the tools and the opportunity to build a good, if not spectacular, business. The New Business of Banking shows that banks can rule their own fate, and that fate can be a good one. Issues such as customer service and serious competitive analysis will play a major role in determining whether or not financial institutions will be winners. The New Business of Banking presents a comprehensive guide to organizational fitness, exploring numerous topics in detail, including key global economic issues as they relate to a bank's survival, effects of the bank crisis on profits and management strategies, making the most of fewer resources, capturing customers and franchises, and strategies that winners will use to outpace the competition. The New Business of Banking is designed to help bankers win the competitive struggle. It is designed to helpbankers change their thinking about themselves, their industry, their customers and their competitors. It is designed to help them identify their strengths and weaknesses, and to develop strategies built around both. It is designed to help them transform themselves, their employees, and their institutions into tough, competitive, winning organizations.

Book The Bankers    New Clothes

Download or read book The Bankers New Clothes written by Anat Admati and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, and Bloomberg Businessweek Book of the Year Why our banking system is broken—and what we must do to fix it New bank failures have been a rude awakening for everyone who believed that the banking industry was reformed after the Global Financial Crisis—and that we’d never again have to choose between massive bailouts and financial havoc. The Bankers’ New Clothes uncovers just how little things have changed—and why banks are still so dangerous. Writing in clear language that anyone can understand, Anat Admati and Martin Hellwig debunk the false and misleading claims of bankers, regulators, politicians, academics, and others who oppose effective reform, and they explain how the banking system can be made safer and healthier. Thoroughly updated for a world where bank failures have made a dramatic return, this acclaimed and important book now features a new preface and four new chapters that expose the shortcomings of current policies and reveal how the dominance of banking even presents dangers to the rule of law and democracy itself.

Book The Future of Finance

Download or read book The Future of Finance written by Moorad Choudhry and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-09-16 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New banking and investment business models to navigate the post-financial crisis environment The financial crisis of 2007-2008 has discredited business models in the banking and fund management industries. In The Future of Finance, Moorad Choudhry and Gino Landuyt argue that banks must realign their business models, implying a lower return-on-equity; diversifying their funding sources; and increasing liquidity reserves. On the investment side, the authors discuss how diversification did not reduce risk, but rather amplified it, and failed to stabilize returns. The authors conclude that the clear lesson from the crisis is to know one's risk. A lesson that is best served by concentrating on assets and sectors that you understand. Examines the weaknesses in the business models of many institutions, as well as the theoretical foundation for professionals in the field of finance Identifies the shortcomings of Modern Portfolio Theory Addresses how investment managers can find new strategies for creating "alpha" and why they need to re-vamp their fee structures Filled with in-depth insights and practical advice, The Future of Finance will provide bankers and investment managers with a guide to realigning their businesses in order to prosper in the post-crisis financial markets.

Book Innovation and the Future Proof Bank

Download or read book Innovation and the Future Proof Bank written by James A Gardner and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-04-20 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation, the conversion of the new to business as usual, is a very special business process. It is the business process able to reprogram all others. Creating the practices that make this process work is a key challenge for all in financial services that are worried about responding to the future. When an institution can identify things that are outside its present practices and convert them, production line style, into products, processes, cultural changes, or new markets, it will never be outpaced by internal or external change again. The institution becomes "FutureProof". This is a book about those practices in banks. It explains, using examples from institutions around the world, what it takes to create an innovation culture that consistently introduces new things into undifferentiated markets and internal cultures. It shows how banks can leverage the power of the new to establish unexpected revenue lines, or make old ones grow. And it provides advice on the social and political factors that either help or hinder the germination of the new in banks. Moreover, though, this is a book about the science of innovation in a banking context. Drawing from practices already highly developed in financial services—managing portfolios of assets to mitigate risk—it explains how practitioners can run their innovations groups like any other business line in the bank one that delivers a return on investment predictably and at high multiples of internal cost of capital. For leaders, Innovation and the Future Proof Bank provides the diagnostic tools to guide benchmarking and investment decisions for the innovation function. And for innovation practitioners, the book lays out everything needed to make sure that converting the new to business as usual is predictable, measurable, and profitable.

Book Legal Data for Banking

Download or read book Legal Data for Banking written by Akber Datoo and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical, informative guide to banks’ major weakness Legal Data for Banking defines the legal data domain in the context of financial institutions, and describes how banks can leverage these assets to optimise business lines and effectively manage risk. Legal data is at the heart of post-2009 regulatory reform, and practitioners need to deepen their grasp of legal data management in order to remain compliant with new rules focusing on transparency in trade and risk reporting. This book provides essential information for IT, project management and data governance leaders, with detailed discussion of current and best practices. Many banks are experiencing recurrent pain points related to legal data management issues, so clear explanations of the required processes, systems and strategic governance provide immediately-relevant relief. The recent financial crisis following the collapse of major banks had roots in poor risk data management, and the regulators’ unawareness of accumulated systemic risk stemming from contractual obligations between firms. To avoid repeating history, today’s banks must be proactive in legal data management; this book provides the critical knowledge practitioners need to put the necessary systems and practices in place. Learn how current legal data management practices are hurting banks Understand the systems, structures and strategies required to manage risk and optimise business lines Delve into the regulations surrounding risk aggregation, netting, collateral enforceability and more Gain practical insight on legal data technology, systems and migration The legal contracts between firms contain significant obligations that underpin the financial markets; failing to recognise these terms as valuable data assets means increased risk exposure and untapped business lines. Legal Data for Banking provides critical information for the banking industry, with actionable guidance for implementation.
