Navigating regulatory reform and reduced liquidity in a changing landscape
Risk magazine’s Risk Europe returns to Frankfurt on the 25 -28th of May 2010. Unprecedented movements in the market have sparked global regulatory changes on a scale never seen before. One of the major problems exposed by the crisis was that regulators, banks and investors had insufficient clarity on who was holding what risks. Since then, the financial industry has been working hard to facilitate the introduction of central clearing of OTC derivatives contracts, strengthen risk measurement capabilities and establish trade repositories.
In October 2009, Risk discussed the importance of stress-testing in analyzing an institution’s vulnerability to extreme losses in a period of stress. In January 2010, the magazine published an article on regulatory capital and enterprise risk management –challenges that the banks are facing with aggregating data across various business lines. Financial risk management is centre stage, affecting more roles in more types of organization than ever.
The Risk Europe will come at a key time for the financial risk management industry. It will bring together senior practitioners from banks and investment firms, academics, regulators and think-tank advisors from the most respected pan-European institutions to lead over 40 sessions covering the complete spectrum of risk management and give you the opportunity to discuss the practical challenges of stress-testing, systemic risk, counterparty risk, effective portfolio management and much more, whilst hearing unique market insights at our exclusive CRO roundtable. Risk Europe is the live forum for Risk magazine, delivering the same high quality, cutting-edge market analysis and commentary you have come to expect from the world’s leading specialist derivatives and risk management publication. It will help you and your organization to be more alert to extreme events and better position yourself to react in a timely manner.
“Risk Europe is a permanent fixture in my calendar – a must do event, offering a chance to debate the year ahead with key players. The rate of change in the derivatives and risk industry means that missing a risk conference can mean flying blind for the year ahead. It’s a double espresso shot of tools and ideas you need.” Harvey Toor, Chief Risk Officer, ABU DHABI INVESTMENT COUNCIL
