Banknet's Financial Sector Survey 2008 ranks Risk Management and Customer Centricity and Management as the top challenges that need to be addressed. These top two priorities have been closely followed by Basel II.
Announcing the findings at Banknet's Fourth Annual CTO- CXO Summit on 15th May 2008, Mr Anurag Khanna, Chairman & Managing Director of Banknet Group added that Implementation of Basel II is likely to improve the risk management systems of banks as the banks aim for adequate capitalization to meet the underlying credit risks and strengthen the overall financial system. Customers and customer relationships lie at the very core of the business of banking and hence they rank high on the priority list of banks.
