汇丰银行前主席谈防范风险

The past chairman of HSBC talked about risk protection

风险控制、风险防范是银行乃至所有投融资机构年年讲、月月讲、天天讲的永恒话题。但即便是这样,也没有抵御了全球金融危机的爆发。世界经济陷入一场突如其来的灾难中。我们不得不反思,这风险控制、风险防范是靠讲就能抵御的吗?不然。国际著名银行专家、前任汇丰银行(HSBC)主席、现任迪拜国际金融中心管理局(Dubai International Financial Centre Authority)主席David Eldon(大卫·艾尔敦)先生在接受《国际融资》杂志记者采访时一针见血地指出:"大部分的银行都忘记了要进行风险防范、监控和管理,因为他们更加关注和担心的是如何才能拓展业务,抢占市场,成为市场中的领先者。在过去几年,风险管理人员明显地失去了对风险的控制,而银行发展和业务拓展占据了绝对的地位,每个人都希望开发新的业务,他们忘了有风险这么一回事儿!"他强调:金融机构需要高素质高水平的风险管理者。

Risk protection and risk administration is an eternal topic of banking and all investing-financing institutions. However, global financial crisis still broke out and bring bring disaster to the world economy. Why didn＇t we control the risks？ Mr. David Eldon, the past chairman of HSBC and chairman of Dubai International Financial Centre Authority told us that was because most banks had forgotten to control or protect risks.
