Editor's Note:
The 1st edition of Back Office and Beyond became the benchmark source and reference for 'best practice' in back office procedures. Better attention to back office procedures would have prevented disasters at Barings, Sumitomo, and other causes celebres - not to mention the latest debacle at Allfirst in the USA.This ground breaking book is an essential read for anyone wanting his/her organisation to thrive and survive, containing particularly practical guidance and advice and now extends its cover to the implications of CAD II. There is a compelling requirement for aspects of risk to be situated in the Back/Middle Office areas. Indeed, they should be involved at first base: for if data is not captured accurately, there is little chance of the institution's risk profile being accurate. With so many banks offering similar products and pricing, accurate and speedy settlements have become a competition issue not to be ignored. As an additional reason for purchase, this edition now offers a guide to Equities' settlement also.

Indulge in the ultimate literary experience. We've refined the way you discover and access Back Office and Beyond: A Guide to Procedures, Settlements and Risk in Financial Markets by Mervyn J. King. Crafted for the discerning reader.

Experience across all your premium devices with our high-fidelity digital format. Featuring cinematic typography, fluid layouts, and flawless rendering for an unparalleled reading session.
