This paper presents a case study that attempted to demonstrate the benefits of knowledge management by measuring its impact. This work was carried out in the in-house legal division of the UK\u2019s Financial Services Authority over a period of 18 months. A measurement model was devised based on concepts adapted from the Balanced Scorecard. This was the knowledge management benefits scorecard. The scorecard took each objective of the division\u2019s knowledge management strategy and listed knowledge management activities necessary to achieve each objective. Next, likely benefits to individuals and the division arising from each knowledge management activity were listed. Methods of collecting qualitative and quantitative measurements data were then devised. Results obtained showed that benefits arising from some knowledge management activities could be clearly demonstrated. However, activities that required individuals to change their behaviour or take time to learn new skills were more problematical. More time would be necessary to demonstrate the benefits of knowledge management conclusively.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0165551503296005","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,5,27]],"date-time":"2004-05-27T11:59:35Z","timestamp":1085659175000},"page":"475-487","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Measuring the benefits of knowledge management at the Financial Services                Authority: a case study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Ros","family":"Jones","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Financial Services Authority, London, UK"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2003,11,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","unstructured":"[1] T.
