Purpose: The model of CSR devised by the American scientist ″Archie B. Carroll in 1991″ - which became well- known in academic circles as Carroll′s CSR pyramid, has been criticized by academics and researchers. The researcher firmly believes that one of the most important reasons that led to the emergence of these criticisms was Carroll's adoption of the idea of the pyramid as a form to illustrate his idea of CSR. The content of the pyramid does not match the accompanying explanations given by Carroll. Carroll's CSR pyramid does not reflect the concept of simultaneous CSRs. Also, Carroll's CSR pyramid does not reflect the logical interaction and interrelationships among CSRs. It is also noted that, Carroll's pyramid reflects the expectations of stakeholders and does not reflect the expectations of companies from their commitment to their social responsibilities. This study aimed to design a model for CSR, in which the content of its figure matches the explanations attached to it, and reflects the concept of simultaneous CSRs, in addition to the logical interaction and the interrelationship among those responsibilities. Method: The researcher used the concept of precedence as an approach to explain the logical interaction and interrelationships among CSRs. The idea of precedence is clearly found only in the railway industry. The interaction of CSRs with each other can be likened to the interaction of the components of a classic train (a cockpit and coaches). Therefore, the researcher adopted the idea of the classic train as an innovative model to address some of the shortcomings of Carroll ′s pyramid. Battal's CSR train as an innovative model- in this study, can reflect the notion of simultaneous CSRs, the logical interaction and interrelationships among CSRs, and expectations and aspirations of both stakeholders and companies. Result: By adopting the idea of the classic train work and its components, this study was able to produce a model of CSR as an alternative model for Carroll′s pyramid (1991). Originality/Value: Battal ′s CSR train is an educational model that is designed to address some of the shortcomings of Carroll's CSR pyramid "as a figure and content." The content of Battal′s CSR train matches the attached explanation, and this will help to understand how CSRs interact with each other, as well as the concept of simultaneous CSRs. It is an enrichment of the thought of CSR.Full article

We investigate and analyze the trends and behaviors in credit card fraud attacks and transactions. First, we perform logical analysis to find hidden patterns and trends, then we leverage game-theoretical models to illustrate the potential strategies of both the attackers and defenders. Next, we demonstrate the strength of industry-scale, privacy-preserving artificial intelligence solutions by presenting the results from our recent exploratory study in this respect. Furthermore, we describe the intrinsic challenges in the context of developing reliable predictive models using more stringent protocols, and hence the need for sector-specific benchmark datasets, and provide potential solutions based on state-of-the-art privacy models. Finally, we conclude the paper by discussing future research lines on the topic, and also the possible real-life implications. The paper underscores the challenges in creating robust AI models for the banking sector. The results also showcase that privacy-preserving AI models can potentially augment sharing capabilities while mitigating liability issues of public-private sector partnerships [1].Full article

Cloud native ETL pipelines support the extract and transform phases of real time claims processing in large scale insurers. The cloud native approach offers dramatic improvements in scalability, reliability, resiliency and agility as well as seamless integration with the diverse set of data sources, destinations and technologies characteristic of large scale insurers. The ETL process extracts data from source systems such as core transaction, fraud, customer and accounting processes, transforms the data to create a usable format for analytics and other applications, and loads the resulting tables into business intelligence or data lake systems for subsequent storage and analysis. By addressing these two phases of the overall ETL process, cloud native ETL pipelines can provide timely, reliable and consistent data to data scientists, actuaries, underwriters and other analysts. Real time processing represents a key priority within the overall claims process: faster, more accurate claim approvals reduce insurer costs, improve customer service and enhance premium pricing. As a result, a variety of claims related use cases are moving from batch to real time.Full article
