Are numbers more trustworthy than words? The Commsrisk articles which received most attention during November concentrated on analyzing figures that are widely reported but rarely subjected to critical analysis. Only a few hits separated the top two articles. In first place was an article about Subex’s seemingly uninteresting financial performance, and what this means for a firm that is being separated into two divergent businesses. Just behind was an article revealing the flaws with the CFCA’s telecoms fraud survey.
Good risk professionals tend to be instinctively analytical and passionate about accuracy, so they are interested in the truth behind the words and numbers presented to them. Many of them also seek fair outcomes, whilst a simple headcount reveals the extent to which white professionals from Western countries dominate some so-called global associations. That is why the most widely-read article during October, which concerned racial and national prejudice in telecoms risk management, was also in the top three for November.
These were the ten most popular Commsrisk articles during November.
