- 9. Drivers behind BI adoption
• Compliance with legislation and international
agreements (e.g., Basel II Capital Accord, IAS)
• Need to improve intelligence, security and fraud
detection (e.g., anti-terrorism, network fraud prevention)
• Drive to increase public sector value (e.g., e-Gov
initiatives)
• Enterprise integration initiatives (e.g., 360o customer
views & closed loop marketing, ERM, SRM)
• Trend towards the agile enterprise to respond to real-
time business events (e.g., steep oil price rises)
