Chaired by Henny Sender, Chief Correspondent, International Finance, for the Financial Times, this invitation-only event will gather CFOs, Treasurers, and other Senior Executives from Financial Institutions to discuss the strategic impact of the financial crisis and global economic downturn on risk assessment, liquidity and treasury operations.
Discussion topics will include:
- Liquidity risk management has been identified by Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke as "essential, particularly during times of intense financial stress." How much liquidity is enough in the industry?
- How can the correct treasury operational structure help address liquidity issues and business continuity?
- How should the industry focus on capital adequacy?
- What is the right way to measure financial risk? Is the Value at Risk method still effective? Is there anything better to replace it?
- What innovative liquidity or treasury strategies have you seen introduced in the last twelve months?
- How has the substantial government involvement in the financial sector affected counter-party risk? Does government support mean this is no longer a problem?
- To what extent has the change in the competitive landscape for financial institutions altered planning processes and overall risk assessment in the sector?
