This collection considers the financial crisis from a managerial
perspective, focussing on the business implications for the
financial industry. Topics examined include governance, information
needs and strategy of financial intermediaries and investors. The
contributions build on the existing literature and present some
unique insights on governance, credit quality evaluation and
performance measurement. In a fast growing or steady market, it is
possible for even an inefficient financial system to satisfy
investors' and firms' needs. However, the current financial crisis
has brought into sharp relief the limits of the inefficient
practices adopted by the market, and made clear the importance of
developing more effective governance mechanisms, more detailed and
complete information databases and new strategies. The crisis has
also brought to the fore issues about the governance of financial
intermediaries that had not been previously addressed. These
include board diversity, internal monitoring procedures and the
existence of interlocking directorates. More broadly, the financial
crisis has radically altered the international framework, with an
increasingly consolidated financial sector, and the rise of new
markets (such as China) that now play a predominant role in the
worldwide market. Studies on the competition and on the performance
in this new scenario are essential in order to understand the
implications of recent events.
