Managing a Bank: Understanding It to Oversee It Better

Since the Credit Suisse crisis, there has been renewed focus on bank governance: the roles of governing bodies, risk management, and oversight. For a board of directors, these expectations directly impact its ability to understand, ask questions, and make decisions. This ability cannot be improvised; it must be developed and maintained.

ISFB Insight Print: The magazine for skills development in the banking and financial ecosystem of French-speaking Switzerland

The quarterly print publication features analyses, interviews, and opinion pieces on trends in the banking and finance industries.

The quarterly publication is distributed free of charge to ISFB member institutions, which may make it available to their staff, clients, or partners—particularly in their reception areas, lounges, waiting rooms, or reception areas.

Individuals can also receive the magazine as part of their ISFB Hub membership.

Since January 2023, ISFB Insight Online has primarily been an online publication. Articles, interviews, opinion pieces, newsletters, and social media posts keep pace with current events, industry trends, and ideas circulating in the French-speaking Swiss financial community. It’s all about immediacy: delivering information quickly, picking up on signals, sparking reactions, and gauging what captures attention. ISFB Insight Print operates on a different timeline. Print curates, compiles, and slows things down. It gives certain texts greater longevity, more space to certain voices, and greater weight to reflections that deserve to be preserved, reread, and shared. Digital media drives the momentum; print preserves the record. Between these two formats, different timeframes intersect. Some content remains available exclusively online to maintain its direct link to current events and extend the reading experience. Other articles, written by members for members, find their place solely in the print edition. ISFB Insight thus bridges the gap between the rapid circulation of ideas and the more enduring preservation of contributions.

AI does not teach; it reveals our true relationship with knowledge (AGEFI, December 10, 2025)

00 December 11,2025|Press Review, Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence|

Revue de presse L'IA n'enseigne pas, elle révèle notre rapport au savoir {post_date} L’irruption de l'intelligence artificielle accélère l’apprentissage et affine les pratiques, sans remplacer l’expérience qui construit la compétence. L’intelligence artificielle (IA) entre dans nos apprentissages avec une vitesse inédite: elle amplifie nos réflexes, nos motivations et notre rapport au savoir. Mais elle ne remplace ni la rencontre, ni la réflexion, ni l’expérience partagée — ces éléments qui transforment réellement la compétence. Je l’observe concrètement dans mon rôle à la tête d’une association dédiée au développement des compétences. Lorsque nos intervenants préparent leurs cours, ...
