Risk Management and Compliance Solutions Catalyze New Business Growth

摘要

For most capital markets firms risk and regulation are basic elements of the natural business environment. Pricing and repackaging risk are, after all, the industry's core competencies, and some degree of regulation has always been the tradeoff for political and economic stability. Managing risks and assuring compliance are essential operating functions, and the IT solutions that support them are important components of enterprise infrastructure. Today, capital markets firms face increasing risk management and compliance demands. It's not news that a few corporate scandals and global instabilities have brought new public scrutiny and regulatory intervention, or that recession and globalization have roiled markets, multiplied business risks and depressed earnings. Financial service leaders are responding to these challenges by modernizing IT infrastructure; implementing industry best practices; and deploying new solutions that simplify, streamline and accelerate their critical business processes. What some managers see as routine technology upgrades, visionary executives understand as investments in new revenue and growth opportunities.
