"Sustainability and social inequality are ‘grand challenges’ with a strong impact on companies and investors. The dominant theories and institutions of corporate governance present significant constraints on the capacity of practitioners, including company and fund managers, to engage in a timely and successful way with these grand challenges."
"The possibilities of a Keynesian-Knightian synthesis as a way forward are considered by comparing these signposts. It is argued that, although there is some common ground between Knight and Keynes, there are fundamental differences particularly associated with Keynes’s concept of weight of argument."
"Evidence that the COVID-19 pandemic had minimal effect on operational risk losses in 2020 is presented and the effect of model risk is emphasized. Our results show that the existence or otherwise of significant correlations depends on the regression model used, whether data series show trends, the time window concerned, geographical location and the type of financial institution."
"... climate change may drive operational risk losses through complex interactions between three factors: changes in human and institutional behaviors, significant and rapid changes in economic metrics and direct physical impacts."
"... some operational risk managers are working more closely with their human resources partners to develop a more cohesive approach to people risk management. In the context of current reforms to the capital requirements for operational risk"
"We observe that cyber vulnerability and other financial shocks cannot be treated as uncorrelated risks and policy solutions for cyber security need to be calibrated for adverse financial conditions."
"In this paper, a compound Poisson risk model with two-sided jumps and proportional investment is considered. The downward jumps represent the claims, while the upward jumps are also allowed to represent the random gains."
"We provide a formal model evaluating the impact of AI and how risk management, stakes, and inter-related tasks affect AI adoption. The broad conclusion is that AI adoption can be stymied by existing processes designed to address uncertainty."
"... we conclude that the Prophet model does a good job of forecasting bank capital ratios, which could supplement bank stress tests by regulatory agencies."
"We find that banks manage regulatory capital to exceed the threshold and thus to pay lower deposit insurance fees and to have access brokered deposits and financial activities. To reach the threshold, banks use accounting discretion over accruals and real activities, increase equity, and change risk-weighted assets."
