Risk Management and Corporate Governance
in Unpredictable Business Environments

Risk Management and Corporate Governance in Unpredictable Business Environments

Platform Supply Chains in the AI Era

This open access book provides a systematic and in-depth analysis of the critical risks inherent in modern platform-based supply chains. Employing rigorous analytical methods, including game theory and advanced, computationally efficient simulation techniques, it delves into three core areas: operational risks, information and data risks, and quality and compliance risks. The book moves beyond traditional supply chain paradigms to address challenges unique to the platform economy. This includes the strategic threat of platforms using seller data to launch competing products, the complex trade-offs in managing third-party product quality, the impact of reactive capacity on quality decisions, and the challenge of optimizing inventory across networks of unprecedented scale. It is an essential resource for graduate students, academic researchers, and advanced practitioners in the fields of operations management, supply chain management, and information systems. The content is suitable for readers with a graduate-level understanding of these disciplines.

Risk Management

Platform Supply Chains 5

In a world fractured by constant volatility, traditional leadership frameworks are being challenged by forces that evolve faster than institutions can interpret them. This book challenges the comforting illusion of the "Black Swan" -- that major disruptions are rare, unpredictable events best understood only after they occur. Instead, the author introduces the perma-disruption ecosystem: an environment where geopolitical, technological and regulatory forces continuously collide and compound. The true threat to modern institutions is not the rare, unforeseeable shock; it is the "Black Dragon" -- a massive systemic force that is visible long before its full consequences unfold, yet repeatedly ignored because no single signal feels urgent enough to demand action until the power to choose has already begun to disappear.Written for forward-thinking executives, board members and senior leaders, The Black Dragon delivers a rigorous architecture for institutional foresight, proactive governance and strategic transformation. At its core is Black Dragon Logic: the discipline of reading the terrain of perma-disruption. Moving beyond passive delegation and superficial agility, the book outlines a demanding new leadership contract rooted in collective intelligence and anticipatory accountability. It explains how to cut through paralyzing data noise, interpret converging power dynamics and deploy capital with confidence before disruption becomes obvious to everyone else.,

Dynamics, Risks and Systemic Implications

The Leveraged Loan Market

How most investing decisions differ from what the data say works—and how replacing myth with measurement can improve outcomes. The Accidental Venture Capitalist examines how early-stage investment decisions are actually made—and why so many of them diverge from what the evidence says should work. Written by an academic-turned-venture capitalist Scott Shane, the book sits at the intersection of rigorous research and lived investing experience. Its central premise is simple but uncomfortable: in venture capital, folklore and intuition dominate practice, even though decades of empirical research offer more reliable guidance on selection, pricing, portfolio construction, and incentives. The book follows the full arc of the venture process, from fund design and deal sourcing to valuation, syndication, follow-on investing, governance, and exits. Each chapter takes a familiar maxim—“bet on the jockey,” “do more diligence,” “double down on winners”—and tests it against large-sample academic evidence and real investment outcomes. Shane’s analysis is grounded in power-law economics, behavioral decision-making, and incentive alignment. And he is transparent about mistakes as well as successes, treating his own funds as a living laboratory rather than a victory lap. The book also offers practical tools—checklists, heuristics, simple models—that translate evidence into decisions investors can actually implement.

Why Evidence Beats Instinct in Early-Stage Investing

The Accidental Venture Capitalist

The primary objective of this work is to develop a behavioral basis for an AI algorithm to assist managers of finance, production, and marketing divisions of firms in imperfect markets. Production, sales revenue, external finance, and networth (market value of the fixed assets) have the pivotal role as objectives. However, all of them cannot be maximized simultaneously due to the interdependence among them. The managers tend to pursue the most valuable objective using the most productive strategy at each point of time. This was utilized as a basis for the AI algorithm. Non-linearities in the switches in objectives and strategies are a short run phenomenon while swaps will be preferred if firms have a long run advantage. Such observed phenomena were also incorporated in the specification of the AI algorithms. The important results are as follows. (i) In most industries the shortage of demand is not a constraint. Instead, the ability of firms to increase their strategic supply is dominant. (ii) Most firms pursue strategic supply based on the capital stock available. This indicates a preference for external finance. (iii) In the short run firms utilize working capital finance and selling costs to ensure that the sales revenue achieved is commensurate with the strategic supply. (iv) Thus, the postulate that expected demand determines the strategic supply as well as the profit maximization postulate for the short run do not appear as the priorities.

A New Framework for 100-Year Lives

Financial Planning for Longevity

This Palgrave Pivot develops an interdisciplinary approach to household financial decision-making by integrating behavioral finance, consumer finance, financial planning, and human-centered artificial intelligence. Moving beyond investor- and market-focused traditions, it situates financial risk tolerance, financial stress, and dynamic behavioral signals within the lived contexts of households, advisors, and institutions. The book reconceptualizes risk tolerance as a time-varying behavioral construct, positions financial stress as a core mechanism shaping decision-making and well-being, and introduces a framework of behavioral signals, including consumer complaints, sentiment, and market mood, that may precede price movements.It further examines how machine learning and AI can interpret these signals while reshaping financial advice, alongside their methodological limits and ethical implications for accountability and client autonomy. By linking psychological states, behavioral data, and advisory practice, the book offers a structured research agenda for behavioral personal finance and contributes to debates on financial well-being, vulnerability, and technology-mediated decision-making. It will be of interest to scholars and advanced students in behavioral finance, financial planning, consumer science, and decision psychology, as well as practitioners and policymakers concerned with AI and household financial behavior.Wookjae Heo
 is Associate Professor of Consumer Science at Purdue University. His research focuses on financial risk tolerance, financial stress, consumer financial behavior, and the application of machine learning and natural language processing in personal finance. He has published widely in leading journals in consumer finance and financial planning and is known for advancing behavioral personal finance as an interdisciplinary field linking household decision-making, well-being, and human-centered AI.

From Theory to Practice

Fundamentals of Climate Finance

Risk, Governance and Society

European finance now operates under a dense web of intersecting rules. While these safeguards have reduced formal weaknesses, they often undercut strategic capacity, immobilize capital, and promote a tick-box mindset. This book argues that the problem is not the volume of regulations, but rather the absence of a shared language of risk. Treating risk as an external constraint renders institutions compliant yet fragile.
Drawing on the author's background in banking, payments, and fintech—including CTO/CIO and board-level roles with responsibility for technology strategy, operational resilience, payment systems, and supervisory engagement—and research on risk-based performance indicators, the book blends practice and research. It offers a governance-centered framework that translates regulatory duties into risk-based decision-making and metrics, differentiates banks from nonbanks, and integrates technology and third-party exposure.
Reframing supervision as a relational process built on proportionality, trust, and risk ownership, this book will appeal to readers interested in how financial risk governance shapes institutions, supervision, and society.

Springer Texts in Business and Economics

The third volume of this textbook contains problem sets that allow models to be applied to specific scenarios. The aim of these problems is to show the relevance of the results these models provide to analyse events, provide recommendations, or critique decisions made. This is achievable without referring to the details of the model and the formal mathematical results but using the often scarce information provided to approach the problem intuitively, informed by the models discussed in volumes I and II. Using such an approach also strengthens the understanding of the implications these models have for decision-making in banks or by policymakers.

Theoretical Foundations of Commercial Banking - Vol.3

The first volume of this book discusses in detail the role of banks in the economy before focussing on the provision of loans and their financing through deposits. These core activities by banks are analysed in detail, including how banks deal with strategic default, what role collateral plays in the lending process, how important relationship banking is to banks and borrowers, amongst many other topics. The implications for banks of financing long-term loans with short-term deposits are considered alongside remedies to overcome the resulting problems of this are explored. With deposits also being important for depositors as a means of making payments for goods and services, such account services are also covered in this volume.
