AI Incident Response: What Happens When an AI System Fails?

July 5, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Why organizations need response playbooks before AI failures become legal, operational, and reputational crises EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Artificial intelligence governance is often discussed before deployment: policies, vendor reviews, risk assessments, access controls, human oversight, audit trails, and board reporting. But the real test of AI governance comes when something goes wrong. An AI system may leak...

Climate on the Balance Sheet: Quantifying What the Region Can No Longer Ignore

June 24, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Climate risk has stopped being an environmental footnote and become a financial one. It reaches the balance sheet through two channels — physical and transition — and the organisations that quantify it early will navigate the decade ahead far better than those that wait to be told. For most of the last two decades,...

Expected Credit Loss Without the Guesswork: ECL for Caribbean Cooperatives

June 23, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

For the credit unions at the heart of Caribbean finance, IFRS 9’s expected-credit-loss model can feel like institutionalised guessing. Done with discipline, it is the opposite — and a powerful early-warning system. Across the Caribbean, credit unions and cooperatives are not a financial-sector afterthought — they are a cornerstone. They hold the savings of...

From Compliance to Competitive Edge: The Five Stages of Actuarial Value

June 22, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Every organisation that carries financial risk sits somewhere on a five-stage continuum — usually without having chosen its position.

The Actuarial Advantage: Why Caribbean Boards Can No Longer Outsource Foresight

June 22, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Executive Summary Every consequential decision made by a board rests on assumptions about the future. For insurers, pension funds, credit unions, banks, governments and large corporates, those assumptions often relate to uncertain claims, future benefits, expected credit losses, catastrophe exposures, longevity, investment returns, liquidity, solvency and capital adequacy. This is the world of actuarial...

The Past Has Stopped Predicting: Climate Risk Quantification for Caribbean Boards

May 30, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Actuarial science rests on the premise that the past is a guide to the future. Climate is the exposure for which that premise no longer holds — and a region built on coastlines is being asked, by ratings agencies, correspondent banks, and supervisors, to measure a risk for which its own history has stopped being...

Every Valuation Is an Argument: Pension Valuation Governance for Caribbean Trustees

May 30, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

When a Caribbean trustee approves a pension valuation, they are not approving a fact. They are endorsing a chain of assumptions reached by someone else — and the governance question that matters is whether the board has seen the argument, or only the conclusion. This is the second of four papers in The...
