Uniform system banking regulations diminishing inequality competitive national sources. More then before, with Basel II, enterprise credit management area will represent a main company lever to drive ratings variables; moreover, it will be a consistent opportunity for the companies to substitute traditional debt source (especially for small-medium companies), reduce risk and gain a better bank credit access The challenge for Basel II-IT-Solutions is great. Basel II’s operational risk requirements have to include not just information availability but confidentiality and integrity too.”
