This webinar offers a more practical approach to reform, based on the case study of a trading room manager who redesigned his organisation to avoid possible scandals. Daniel witnessed this experiment in real time for three years and revisited it ten years later to establish what worked and what did not.
Daniel's analysis suggests the use of models to control employees (e.g. value at risk models to limit expected losses in traders’ positions) creates perceptions of injustice when these models prove inaccurate, leading traders to morally disengage. Based on the case study example, his analysis also suggests alternatives that do not create disengagement. Hear about Daniel's findings on this webinar.
