The decline of the investment banking model will lead to increased emphasis on transaction-based revenue. What impact will this have on Operational Risk?

"The reform of the international financial system is not only necessary to prevent a crisis, it is essential to end the current crisis." British Prime Minister Gordon Brown

With so much uncertainty in the marketplace, this is the ideal time to attend SOF's Operational Risk, Compliance and Governance Conference - Issues and Challenges, Co-Sponsored by National Financial, a Fidelity Investments Company. This two-day conference brings together Risk, Compliance and Governance experts to assist attendees in understanding the current state of the market and identify steps to reduce and avoid operational risks with industry-tested ideas and solutions.

Distinguished speakers will focus on the benefits and limitations of various operational risk and GRC models, best practices and real-life case studies. The discussion will also include panels on the changing needs of the market, the analysis of proactive measures and theory vs. practicality and fundamentals of convergence, complacency, and various relationships within the organization.
