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.

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.

Investor Protection in a Twin Peaks World: From Disclosure to Outcomes

May 4, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

The shift from disclosure to outcomes The most important conceptual shift in international investor protection over the past decade is the shift from disclosure-based to outcomes-based regulation.

Under disclosure-based regulation, the regulatory framework requires regulated firms to disclose material features of products and services. Risk...

Political Risk, Social Instability, and the Board’s Blind Spot

April 11, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Caribbean political stability is real — and Caribbean boards have become so accustomed to that stability that they have stopped rigorously assessing the political and social risks that operate within it. Governance failures, institutional capture, social polarisation, youth unemployment, and the normalisation of informal power are risks that Caribbean boards systematically underestimate because they do...

Climate Risk Is Business Risk: Quantifying Caribbean Exposure

April 11, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Hurricane Melissa’s US$8.8 billion impact on Jamaica in October 2025 was not an anomaly. It was a data point in a clear and intensifying trend.
