Planning for a Rainy Day: Ways to Improve Efficiency and Cut Costs in the Aerospace and Defense Industry
If prizes were given out to industries that had the most cost overruns, delays and inefficiencies, aerospace and defense (A&D) would probably win hands down. On average, new weapons systems are coming in two years late, saddling taxpayers with nearly $300 billion in unanticipated costs. Human nature is partly to blame: Too many contractors presume a“sunny day” scenario, projecting budget requests that are based on nothing going wrong. But things are about to change. The industry is going to ...

Pro Bono: The New Currency in Corporate Philanthropy
Corporate giving has traditionally involved writing a check and calling it a day. But at a time when demands for nonprofit services are on the rise, cash donations are on the decline. Meanwhile, a national call-to-service is spotlighting the power of volunteerism. Enter the new corporate citizen: Instead of donating money to pay for work, companies can cut out the middle man — through pro-bono engagement and skills-based volunteerism. If corporate philanthropy is expanded to include the pri...

Sustaining the Growth Trajectory: Intelligent Risk Taking for Technology Companies
Growth is a goal for most organizations. However, for technology companies, growth is a strategic imperative, and rapid growth comes with a set of evolving risks. The technology industry is dynamic and fluid, lending itself to a constant flux of threats, but also plenty of opportunities. A threat that might severely impede a technology company at one stage of its lifecycle — such as the unexpected pullout of an important strategic partner — may dissipate over time as products are released an...

From Recession to Recovery: A Risk Intelligent Strategy for All Economic Times
Today’s turbulent economic environment calls for greater attention to risk management than ever before. Stressors such as low consumer demand, limited access to credit, market uncertainty and the global recession can increase risk exposures far above acceptable levels — especially if risk management activities don’t receive the proper amount of attention. It sounds somber, but there’s good news. The volatile environment has also highlighted risk management as a key driver of value for bu...

Going green has never been more popular, especially now that a new U.S. administration is set to push the environment to the forefront of its agenda.

Establishing Trust in Sovereign Wealth Funds: The Purpose and Objectives of the Santiago Principles
Until recently, few people knew what a Sovereign Wealth Fund (SWF) was, even though some of these funds have been in existence for decades. An SWF certainly doesn’t always look or act like other investment vehicles. These special-purpose investment funds are owned by foreign governments whose policies may sometimes differ from the policies of the countries where they invest; thus SWFs sometimes generate controversy. To help ensure an appropriate level of comfort with the activities of SWFs, re...
