I caught up with John Davies while at JavaZone in Olso Denmark. During our encounter we started to talk about John's experiences in the banking industry in London.

And those rates are climbing steadily. Front office success is all about winning the many race conditions that exists in the market and to do so banks have been willing to invest enormous sums into IT renewal.
