Why your third-party contracts are the largest unexamined AI exposure in your organization Ask most executive teams in this region whether their organization uses artificial intelligence and you will get a confident answer.

Is Your Pension Plan Sustainable? Why the Funding Ratio Is Not Enough

August 2, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

IN BRIEF Most trustee and board discussion of a pension plan begins and ends with the funding ratio. It is the wrong number to end on — not because it is inaccurate, but because it describes one day and says nothing about whether the plan recovers from it. Three questions matter more. How mature...

Why Internal Audit Is Now a Governance Function, Not a Back Office

July 17, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

For decades, internal audit occupied a peculiar position in Caribbean organizations: everyone agreed it was important, and almost no one treated it that way. It sat somewhere down the corridor from finance, reporting to the CFO whose numbers it was supposed to test, staffed thinly, consulted late, and remembered mainly when something had already...

How to Manage Risk and Insurance in a Volatile Region

July 11, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

The Caribbean concentrates more risk per square mile than almost anywhere on earth — and most businesses meet it with an unread policy and a hope. Risk is not weather. It is a portfolio, and portfolios can be engineered. The Problem, Lived “Desmond” owns a twenty-four-room boutique hotel and restaurant on the coast of...

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...

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...

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 Trust Dividend: Why Continuously Governed Organisations Win

June 18, 2026by Dr Dawkins Brown

Governance is almost always counted as a cost — a tax paid to avoid bad outcomes. This final article makes the opposite case: continuous governance is productive, not merely protective. What it produces is trust, and trust pays a dividend that compounds. Over the previous eleven articles, this series has made a sustained case for...

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...
