Sommario/riassunto

This book will be of interest to those involved in the debate on



changing or maintaining the way prudential banking supervision is structured and performed. The book builds on the descriptive companion book EU Banking Supervision (see book details directly above), but focuses on what banking supervision should do, and whether it is deliverable. This analysis flows from the personal experience and expertise of the author - as a customer of banks; as a legal, supervisory, and policy advisor on banking regulation; and from his involvement in national, EU, and worldwide negotiations on new legisla

Sommario/riassunto

This is the first book to establish a theoretical framework for commercial management. It argues that managing the contractual and commercial issues of projects - from project inception to completion - is vital in linking operations at the project level and the multiple projects (portfolios/ programmes) level to the corporate core of a company.   The book focuses on commercial management within the context of project oriented organisations, for example: aerospace, construction, IT, pharmaceutical and telecommunications - in the private and public sectors. By bringing together contributions from leading researchers and practitioners in commercial management, it presents the state-of-the-art in commercial management covering both current research and best practice. Commercial Management of Projects: defining the discipline covers the external milieu (competition, culture, procurement systems); the corporate milieu (corporate governance, strategy, marketing, trust, outsourcing); the projects milieu (management of uncertainty, conflict management and dispute resolution, performance measurement, value management); and the project milieu (project governance, contract management, bidding, purchasing, logistics and supply, cost value reconciliation). Collectively the chapters constitute a step towards the creation of a body of knowledge and a research agenda for commercial management.
