Recent events have highlighted the tight connections linking all sectors and regions across the global economy. Financial markets in particular have undergone substantial transformations, precipitating rapid actions by central banks and other regulatory institutions to maintain market liquidity and funding availability. ERM provides a disciplined management approach for firms to operate in this dynamic environment by taking a strategic and holistic view of risk management across an organization. In this session, experts will explore the impact of regulating agency actions on ERM practice, the importance of ERM concepts in developing a robust financial system going forward, the issues dominating policy debates and the opportunities for ERM to inform future policy discussions.
Moderator: Tom Hettinger, EMB America
Presenters: Dan Rodriguez, Credit-Suisse; Sameer Vittal, General Electric-Energy; Anthony Dardis, Barrie & Hibbert Inc; Leo Tilman, L.M. Tilman & Co.
One result of the current turmoil in the financial markets is that risk management has come under increased scrutiny and criticism-some of it well deserved. This poses a unique challenge and opportunity to risk management professionals. This session is intended to address general lessons that can be learned to improve the modeling and management of risk.
Experts will focus not just on the lessons from recent events, but also modeling lessons that those charged with managing risk for insurance and financial firms may be able to learn from those in other industries.
Moderators:

This interactive session will provide attendees with an opportunity to polish their networking skills and interact with numerous peers. Similar to speed dating, speed networking requires participants to pair up and network with each other in short intervals. During this time, attendees will have a chance to exchange business cards, share knowledge and insights on current market trends, and perfect their networking abilities in a non-intimidating environment.
There is no charge for this session, but space is limited and you must have a ticket to attend. If you’ve already registered to attend the Symposium and would like to add this session to your registration, please contact Customer Service at customerservice@soa.org or 888.697.3900.
