Over the past decade, the rapid increase in the application potential of information technology and the resulting entry into the market of financial and technological companies has led to significant changes in the banking sector. Banks reacted differently to modernizing their IT-related organizational structures. The purpose of this work is to analyze the effectiveness of modern organizational structures of banks using simulation tools. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were performed: 1. A large amount of study guides and research papers on the following topics were analyzed and systematized: a. The use of simulation in solving banking problems; b. The development of project management in banks (and in their IT departments in particular) over the past decade; 2. The list of organizational structures relevant for the study has been determined, further simplified to basic concepts, and to parameterize the real world entities that are significant for the selected metrics; 3. A simulation model of project implementation was constructed with varying parameters for calibration as the model progresses. The performance of the models was estimated depending on the selected parameters. 4. Based on the obtained results, conclusions were made on the impact of the organizational structure on the project implementation time and personnel utilization. As a result of evaluating the performance of the model with the settings of different organizational structures, no significant difference was found in the main indicators. Well-established business processes play a significantly larger role in the smoothness and sustainability of the modern banking IT-department and related structures.
