These new entrants are moving fast to build out competence and credibility in this notoriously conservative sector.

Risk data aggregation: what progress this past year?

The 2015 BIS progress report around BCBS 239 throws up some significant compliance gaps. There is much within the report to discuss. One of the primary goals of these principles was to address was a bank’s ability to access the right data at the right time and get it to the right people. The 2008 crisis made it clear that this wasn’t either doable or easy in a lot of cases back. How far have the banks progressed? And what are the similarities and discrepancies that we also find with our own independently commissioned report of 29 major financial institutions across the globe.

Garages Are for Bands, Not for Cloud Service Providers

Some time back, the Goliaths of the cloud hosting business (you know who they are) put out the word to small and midsize organizations that they’d be delighted to offer hosting services to the Fortune 10,000.  Call it an experiment or a trial balloon, but it was clear to those paying attention that try as they might, enterprise-class providers didn’t really get SMBs.
