It’s clear that corporations expect more than ever before from their banking service providers. They are demanding the same level of insight for payments as they receive for other areas of their business, e.g. the tracking of products in the manufacturing cycle. At the moment, however, many payment systems are not dissimilar to a “black hole” - th...

I managed to catch some of the first day on Thursday of the "Pricing Model Validation: Mitigating Model Risk" conference. I thought it would be worthwhile going along since firstly the past 12-18 months have made model risk very topical both from the perspective of some of the failings in the use of certain complex derivative pricing mod...

Demand for independent price verification (IPV...

Cash management - think of the carrot, not the stick As the FSA’s deadlines for liquidity compliance draw closer, the topic is constantly in the press and is receiving plenty of lip service. The FSA estimated that the combined cost to the industry will be £150-200m, which will likely echo the Olympics 2012 budget and fall far short of the true c...

At Caplin, we’ve helped many banks create single-dealer trading portals, and we’ve watched lots of others do so. In the process, we’ve noticed that some banks plan their portals in a way that virtually guarantees success, while others take an approach that seems doomed to disappointment. A clear pattern has emerged. So what’s the right way – and t...

Depending on your outlook on life you're either looking at things and saying "Oh no...our world is changing again. Or for the optimists; "oh yeah...our world is changing again. Or for the realists; "oh...our world is changing again." Perhaps the changes are not as dramatic as the world envisioned in District 9 but they are ch...
