This is not banking specific, the whole SW industry works like that. I have worked over 20 years in a couple of companies, where SW was an essential part of our products. Yet the quality has never been good, it's a bloat of solving similar problems again and again. Architecture is a mess, even if there are n architects who can present nice diagrams. (I have seen n=1 and n>30, but the fundamental problem is the same) |

Yes, I believe that some sectors might be worse than others. There are metrics and tools provided by the Software Engineering discipline to measure quality of architecture or code. However, they have remained mostly academic. There is no standard metric, which is widely accepted to be useful. And even if some rare(?) company might systematically measure their code base, they don't put the results in the their home page and not even in the contract with their customer.
As long as that does not change, it's just more or less educated feeling where the situation might be better or worse than elsewhere.
