This is particularly true in the rapidly-changing and mission critical area of run-time IT operations, where even short-term failures can mean big-ticket business losses. <br><br>As the data center becomes highly virtualized, and more and more business applications require near-continuous availability, the demand for faster, easier, and less expensive recovery solutions has never been greater. Can you respond with confidence to a component, application or complete site failure? More importantly, can you respond quickly enough? Have you tested your recovery procedures recently? Have you defined clear recovery metrics for each business application and technology component? Are you leveraging virtualization effectively in your disaster recovery planning? And, most importantly, does your IT organizational structure support your disaster recovery strategy?<br><br>This white paper outlines a solution to disaster recovery that combines both technology and process improvement approaches and recognizes that neither alone is sufficient. It addresses the impact of virtualization technology on workload portability and the benefits as well as the remaining operational challenges of the flexibility provided by virtualization. This will set the stage for the critical role of process improvement and automation in any disaster recovery effort. Finally, it details a successful client implementation of a unified approach to disaster recovery that marries a comprehensive process automation approach with a powerful suite of technology tools and applications to achieve dramatic improvements in overall availability with measurable, contained costs.]]></description><pubDate>Tue, 15 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT</pubDate><guid><![CDATA[http://wallstreetandtech.com/whitepaper/IT-Infrastructure/Disaster-Recovery-Business-Continuity/automated-disaster-recovery-for-the-virtualized-d-wp1218726415488]]></guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Riding the Next Wave: Keys to High Performance in an Expanding Global Wealth Management Market ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://wallstreetandtech.com/whitepaper/Wealth-Management/Financial-Advisor/riding-the-next-wave-keys-to-high-performance-in-wp1217966376626]]></link><description><![CDATA[The amount of accumulated global wealth is rising rapidly. This is especially true in emerging markets as a result of the rise of the multi-polar worlda world in which economic might emanates from multiple points around the globe, not just in traditional centers of power. As a result, the wealth management industry is one of the fastest-growing segments of financial services.

 

Yet while these burgeoning assets provide tremendous opportunities for wealth management companies, they also will require that wealth managers make substantial changes across their operations to capitalize on the expanding needs of the affluent for professional money management expertise. For instance, client demands for access to an increasingly diverse and complex set of financial products means relationship managers must eventually adapt their role from investment selector to strategic advisor, tapping into a pool of experts for guidance on specific investment vehicles and other issues. 

 

Wealth management firms also will have to change, developing a new operating model that can enable them to deliver basic products cost effectively while charging a premium for higher-value services. These organizations will find it even more important for the institution, rather than the individual, to have the relationships with clientsespecially as a significant portion of relationship managers retire in the next 10 years. Accenture takes a look at the evolution of wealth around the world, as well as the changes wealth managers must make to capture a greater share of the market for growth and to achieve high performance.]]></description>

		<link><![CDATA[http://wallstreetandtech.com/whitepaper/Asset-Management/Portfolio-Management/best-practices-in-corporate-actions-processing:-a-wp1213920870668]]></link>
		<description><![CDATA[Improving the efficiency of corporate actions handling can help cut
costs, provide competitive advantage through better client service,
maintain regulatory compliance, and reduce operational and reputational
risks. By the same token, corporate action errorsa mislaid notification,
a mistyped data input, a misapplied eventcan result in painful
financial losses. While precise figures are hard to come by, industry
observers estimate that 10 percent of annual corporate actions processing
costs are attributable to write-off funds reserved for losses, which
translates into tens of millions of dollars.
This white paper will untangle some of the complexity that exists in
the corporate actions arena. It will explain how corporate actions are
typically handled today and the challenges investment managers face in
processing them. It will then examine ten common pain points and provide
guidance on how to tackle them. Finally, it will highlight the role
technology can play in improving efficiency and accuracy, and outline a
series of best practices for corporate actions processing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Leading organizations are becoming more mature in their use of grid technologies. They are pursuing business benefits that include the ability to compete as trade volumes rapidly increase, launch new products to generate revenue, and trade at better margins. IT and operations departments stand to increase utilization of resources, reduce costs, and satisfy the demands of the business. But, organizations continue to face a number of obstacles. These include algorithmic optimization of applications, on-boarding applications onto the grid, performance scaling, data latency, and physical constraints in the data center.
Intel is working with a number of hardware, software, and services vendors that provide innovative solutions for the financial industry and can help address some of these obstacles. The aim is to collaborate with grid middleware vendors DataSynapse and Platform Computing, and data caching specialists GemStone, GigaSpaces and Tangosol, among others, to optimize the performance of their solutions on the Intel platform. Based on this collaboration, Intel applies the most advanced technologies to improve data performance on a grid, support virtualization on the processor, and reduce power consumption.]]></description>

		<link><![CDATA[http://wallstreetandtech.com/whitepaper/IT_Infrastructure/business-process-outsourcing:-an-effective-solutiowp1212629345852]]></link>
		<description><![CDATA[Financial services companies increasingly are seeking efficiencies through
Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), the end-to-end outsourcing of a
business line or process. BPO clearly enhances control over business performance,
whether by reducing costs, increasing the quality of processes,
accelerating transformation throughout a business, creating a more flexible
response to sudden external stresses, or through a combination of several
benefits2. With BPO, the relationship between the company and the outsourcer
changes as the latter becomes more of a strategic partner than
a traditional supplier3.
In todays environment, senior managers face growing pressure from regulators
relating to producer licensing and market conduct issues. Financial services
companies question whether it is enough merely to be compliance-competent.
To adopt industry leading best practices and achieve service excellence, the
resources of an outsource specialistsuch as Kaplan Compliance Solutions
Licensing & Registration ServicesSMmay be essential. The standards that an
outsource specialist can meetincreased productivity, efficiency, accuracy,
paper flow management, and personalized problem-solvingsimply may not
be attainable by in-house compliance staff at an affordable cost.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Market in Financial Instrument Directive (MiFID), a far-reaching piece of European legislation, is aimed at creating a unified European capital market and providing strong protection for investors. 
Everyone in the financial community offering investment services in Europe must conform to the MiFID provisions as enacted by the governing regulator.
Of the new requirements, ILOG's Business Rule Management System (BRMS) is especially helpful in the following areas: Client classification, Suitability and appropriateness tests, and Best Execution.
As the market develops under these new regulations, execution venues will appear and disappear and rules governing those policies will have to be reviewed frequently, redefined or supplemented. MiFID also requires that these rules be transparent and fully auditable to ensure the firm's best execution policy has been achieved for every transaction.]]></description>

		<link><![CDATA[http://wallstreetandtech.com/whitepaper/Compliance/blue-frog-solutions-annuity-replacement-evaluator-wp1212458270706]]></link>
		<description><![CDATA[Newly approved FINRA Rule 2821 requires Financial Advisors to
perform an extensive analysis of fees and benefits when recommending
replacement of existing in-force (like for like) annuity contract. The
new rule will require the FA to obtain a copy of the existing contract and
compare its features against those of the new product being recommended
and to provide the client with a side-by-side comparison of the existing
and proposed replacement contracts. The newly required analysis
provides additional peace of mind to all parties  for the Firm and the
FA by providing compliance documentation and a paper trail that can
avoid arbitration and E&O claims  and for the client by ensuring that
documented suitability analysis has been completed before an existing VA
is replaced. Until today, producing reliable annuity exchange comparisons
has been very challenging.

The Annuity Replacement Evaluator (ARE) from Blue Frog
Solutions is a web-based solution that allows your Financial
Representatives to compare and print Annuity Replacement
Evaluations derived from a combination of surrendered contract
data entered by the FA and up-to-date annuity new
business product information provided by Insurance Carriers,
satisfying provisions of Rule 2821.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Developing an effective firmwide risk management strategy requires a shift in mindset on several fronts. First and foremost, it requires an immediate and enduring shift in corporate culture to enforce accountability at the highest levels for understanding and managing
firm exposures.
Second, effective firmwide risk management requires executive-level willingness and commitment to invest in the requisite infrastructure to accurately measure firm exposures, including how the firmwide portfolio will react to a variety of potential changes to the current environment. It should consider everything from the people and information architecture to the data collection and management strategies, all of which are required to reach a comprehensive understanding of a firms risk profile. Firms should adopt a long-term and iterative view of infrastructure improvements that address not only the consistency and timeliness of risk data, but the breadth and comprehensiveness of this data as well.

Crisis brings opportunity to innovate. It is our belief that the critical difference between winners and losersboth today and in the futurelies in the consistent investment in risk assessment infrastructure, enabling the winning firms to act quickly and decisively during times of market upheaval to solidify their gains.]]></description>
