Bingham K: The Soul of Risk

The Soul of Risk

How a Career in Digital Risk Can Transform You Into a Modern-Day Superhero

We’ve been on a raucous, century-long merry-go-round of dueling ideas and personalities: efficient versus inefficient markets; rational versus irrational investors; concepts of risk so profoundly different they don’t seem to reside on the same planet; rich families for whom money is among their least important characteristics; bitter, lifelong feuds. Along the way we’ve met some odd characters and had some amusing experiences.This book brings together the foundational ideas that have shaped investment and wealth management over the past hundred years. Curating thirty landmark works—from Benjamin Graham’s The Intelligent Investor to contemporary classics on behavioral finance and family governance—the book offers a structured guide to the principles, strategies, and philosophies that underpin successful wealth stewardship.Organized in three parts, the book surveys twentieth-century investment breakthroughs, twenty-first-century innovations, and the emerging canon of private wealth management. Each chapter distills the essence of a classic text, explains its historical significance, and demonstrates its relevance for today’s advisors and families. Topics include modern portfolio theory, risk management, behavioral economics, family enterprise governance, and intergenerational planning.Designed as an accessible reference for practitioners and informed readers, this book addresses the complexity of managing family capital—taxes, trusts, governance, and human dynamics—while grounding practice in enduring ideas. By synthesizing a century of scholarship and experience, A Century of Wealth Management Wisdom provides wealth advisors, estate planners, and family office professionals with a definitive resource for navigating the challenges of preserving and growing capital across generations.Gregory Curtis&nbsp;
 is the author of eight books, including three investment books: 
 Family Capital, The Stewardship of Wealth, and Creative Capital
 . He is the author of nearly 50 white papers and journal articles on a variety of investment topics. He has lectured at Harvard Law School, the Tepper School at Carnegie Mellon University, and the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, all in the USA. He has also lectured at the University of Zurich in Switzerland, the University of Vienna in Austria, and Corvinus University in Hungary.

Natural food colors are increasingly valued for their role in supporting consumer health and trust, offering an alternative to widely used synthetic colourants. Spray Drying of Natural Food Colorants and Its Applications presents a rigorous, practice¿oriented guide to producing functional natural food colorants via spray drying, bridging fundamental science with industrial application. Drawing on a wide range of fruit and vegetable sources, it explains how naturally occurring pigments can be transformed into stable, high¿quality colorants and provides evidence¿based insight into safety considerations for everyday use.The book examines commercial feasibility and viability, from laboratory¿scale development through to manufacturing. It offers detailed coverage of process design and optimisation, showing how spray drying parameters shape the physicochemical properties, stability, and performance of the final product. A dedicated section addresses packaging selection and shelf¿life retention, guiding readers on material choices, barrier properties, and storage strategies that preserve quality and functionality.In depth chapters assess bioactive attributes-such as antioxidant, anticancer, and antidiabetic activities-and present advanced spray drying techniques engineered to conserve these components and maintain therapeutic potential in finished powders. Written for researchers, graduate students, and industry professionals in food science, food engineering, and product development, this book provides both conceptual clarity and practical tools, equipping the food sector with a comprehensive framework for designing, evaluating, and commercialising spray¿dried natural colorants that meet safety, efficacy, and market demands.

This book explores how FinTech and crypto-asset ecosystems are transforming financial and organizational processes while creating new challenges for internal control, risk management, and reporting. The volume is structured into three parts. The first introduces digital finance and tokenized economies, examining how token design influences governance structures, control systems, and risk exposure. It also develops an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework tailored to blockchain-based organizations. The second part addresses the administrative, accounting, and compliance dimensions of crypto assets, covering regulatory classification, the MiCA framework, the roles of issuers and service providers, custody arrangements, and the crypto-asset life cycle. It further discusses recognition, measurement, valuation, and disclosure issues under IFRS, US GAAP, and emerging accounting approaches. The third part applies the proposed ERM framework to four case studies, illustrating how rapid growth and technological innovation can coexist with weaknesses in governance, controls, and reporting. The analysis highlights the importance of integrating blockchain records with legal, accounting, and organizational evidence to support sustainable value creation. Combining conceptual foundations with real-world applications, the book provides a valuable reference for academics, practitioners, and students interested in FinTech, blockchain, and crypto assets.Giovanni Scirè

Anyone can be a contrarian. Effective leaders are smart about when--and how--they go against conventional wisdom to succeed.Contrarians are, by and large, ineffective. Their countervailing ideas don't gain support. Their pleas for understanding are dismissed. Their efforts to change minds backfire. But it's not because they're always wrong. It's because they're not smart about going against the grain. People tend to think of contrarianism as some innate trait that you either have or you don't. It's not. It's a way of thinking and a set of skills that can be learned and practiced.This provocative and deeply researched book teaches those skills. Strategy scholars Chengwei Liu and Balázs Kovács reveal how exceptional performance is far less predictable--and far less meritocratic--than most people believe. Drawing on insights from behavioral science, business strategy, finance, sports, entertainment, and entrepreneurship, they show how luck, social dynamics, institutional conformity, and hidden biases shape who succeeds, who fails, and which ideas rise to the top.The authors uncover why consensus thinking so often leads organizations and leaders astray through fascinating stories ranging from PSY's "Gangnam Style" to the rise of Capital One to venture capital bets, celebrity CEOs, financial collapses, and viral cultural phenomena. They introduce a powerful framework for spotting overlooked opportunities, avoiding costly decision traps, and building organizations that learn faster than their competitors do.Leaders and professionals who thrive are not reckless rebels or irrational gamblers but disciplined, smart contrarians who know how to separate signal from hype, skill from luck, and genuine innovation from fashionable noise.Fresh and highly original--and a joy to read--Smart Contrarians is the guide for executives, leaders, entrepreneurs, and all ambitious professionals who want to zig when everyone else zags.
