Dr. Mark L. Frigo will deliver the Opening Address "Emerging Risks for Cross-Border Business"
This timely invitation-only breakfast forum, being held by the Financial Times in partnership with Chartis, will bring together senior-level executives and risk management professionals from the corporate, financial, insurance and legal sectors to share their insights and discuss the impact of changing economic and regulatory climates, how to remain locally compliant and adequately protected in an uncertain risk environment, and effective risk mitigation strategies for global business.  What are the emerging political, economic, social and technological risks for corporations expanding and competing globally? How can data, talent, innovation and capital resources be protected across borders? How can the growing threat of international crime and cyber-risk be minimised? What is the impact of U.S. financial regulatory legislation and executive compensation rulings? Why must corporations plan for tightened indirect-tax regimes as cash-strapped global governments source new revenue areas? How can the global corporation protect itself from unprecedented legal liability and what are the most effective dispute resolution options?The

February 5, 2010: Strategic Risk Management: Protect Your Company for the Long Term

Keynote Presentation:

As the risk profiles of companies have become more complex and more uncertain, management teams and boards need a practical and systematic way to assess and manage the risk in their plans and strategy of the company. One of the major challenges facing every management team is how to link the business strategy and performance measures with Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC). Another significant challenge is to develop a practical strategy for ERM and GRC that meets the specific needs of the organization based on its size and its environment.  Learn a process for assessing and evaluating strategic risk using leading practices from high performance companies and risk assessment tools.
