Governance and Control of Financial Systems (eBook, PDF)

A Resilience Engineering Perspective
Redaktion: Sundström, Gunilla; Hollnagel, Erik

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book illustrates how the safety science of Resilience Engineering can help to gain a better understanding of what the financial services system is and how to improve governance and control of financial services systems by leveraging some of its key concepts. Resilience is the intrinsic ability of a system to adjust its functioning prior to, during, or following changes and disturbances, so that it can sustain required operations under both expected and unexpected conditions.
