OpRisk Asia 2008

Best practices for governance, risk management and compliance in Asian Financial institutions

The current focal point for risk practitioners is to establish an advanced, efficient and sustainable operational risk management structure that is well integrated into the overall enterprise risk management framework. Operational risk management in Asia is undergoing transformation into Basel II Advanced Measurement Approaches (AMA) whilst financial institutions are formulating new strategies in response to the uncertainties in global economies and market volatility.

This year's Oprisk Asia conference showcases the advancements in operational management techniques and takes further steps to examine the vital role of operational risk management in corporate governance of financial institutions. Both domestic and international risk professionals will benefit from this inspirational, practical and educational annual congress via its diversified agenda covering regulatory developments, innovations, best practices and new opportunities in today’s operational management community in Asia.

Congress highlights include:

• Keynote addresses by US Federal Reserve and the Monetary Authority of Singapore on regulatory directions in US and Singapore and their impact to the future landscape of operational risk management
• A panel of international operational risk professionals will examine the essentials in implementing an international ORM framework in Asia-Pacific
• Latest developments and techniques in combating anti-money laundering in Asia
• Strategies to capitalize on ORM in achieving sound corporate governance and enterprise-wide risk management
• Cutting-edge presentations on operational risk challenges faced by asset management and hedge funds in Asia
