A new scenario for banks: glocal banking. A theoretical approach to propose for Europe

2017

In the early 1990s, with the development of information and communication technology (ICT), global banks began looking for a new world consisting of markets rather than relationships through the development of standardised services in the markets. However, in the early 21st century, with the collapse of the speculative bubble and the financial crisis of 2008, which caused financial instability and damaged the real economy, the entire banking system and the market itself suffered profound changes in profitability. Thus, began efforts to develop a new cultural relationship between banks and companies known as 'glocal banking'. These include: studying the needs of customers, planning and provi…

Market risk reporting in banking overcoming the limits of IAS/IFRS and Basel regulation

2017

Market risk in banking activity is becoming a more severe issue day by day for several reasons. Analysing it from a regulatory point of view is fundamental for assessing whether or not banks are in the conditions of disclosing a satisfactory degree of information about their market risk exposure. The two regulatory constraints to consider are International Accounting Standards (IAS/IFRS) and the Basel regulation. Both of them seem to put too many constraints on banks. They turn out to be over-over-regulated. Even if regulators put many efforts in trying to provide a useful regulation for banks' risk reporting and capital adequacy, we are still far from a good regulation. The regulatory proc…

Regional banks in the global financial crisis: in search of new relationship models with local stakeholders

2017

The contribution attempts to find a confirmation of the theoretical statements presented by carrying out both a theoretical and an empirical analysis concerning credit institutions as a reference point for cooperative banks. We are referring to the so called 'popular banks' with their existing limits, compared with the rest of the Italian banking system, analysing the deposits, loans and bad debts in the years from 1995 to 2013; they have also proved to be more stable than the rest of the financial market during the last crisis (2008). Finally, in this era of globalisation it is highlighted how the regional bank model has to evolve by responding to the calls coming from the new competitive …

Efficacy of pneumatic dilatation for the treatment of idiopatic achalasia: a single-center experience

2015

Pneumatic dilatation (PD) and Surgical Miotomy (SM) are presently the best treatments for untreated achalasia, with similar efficacy. There is no information on the relative efficacy of PD in younger compared to older patients. Aim of our study was to compare success rate and safety of PD in patients under fifty years old and in those over fifty years old affected by achalasia. Twenty consecutive symptomatic patients were treated in our Unit with graded PD under fluoroscopic view. Five male and 15 female with a median age of 47 years were treated. Twelve patients were less than fifty years old (group I) while 8 were older (group II). Median dysphagia questionnaire score was 14 and13 ingroup…
