System follows people

If people can misbehave, so can the system. The ugly confrontation between Murthy and the Infosys Board is closely followed by new bugs in the Finacle core banking solution. Finacle is a product of Infosys.

Bank of Baroda has notified its customers that it is migrating to an improved version of Finacle. Consequently, many deposit accounts have been unauthorisedly debited with various amounts. According to the bank's MD and CEO, the debits are being reversed on a war-footing.

It is a strange coincidence that Ravi Venkatesan, the co-chairman of Infosys is also the chairman of Bank of Baroda.
