Abstract:
The globalization and liberalization of financial markets not only bring forth greater prospect of higher returns, but also a greater competition and higher risks for bankers. While competition arises mainly from the entrance of new players and product innovations, greater volatility and rapid changes in the financial landscape generate complex banking risks. The multidimensional nature of these risks demand bankers to be knowledge-based, in order to manage these risks adequately and to maintain a competitive edge. This paper provides evidence for the impact of risks on bank performance and the implication of Knowledge Management (KM) application on bank performance improvement. Further, a conceptual model on knowledge risk is also presented.
