This one day conference will help Investment Managers, Custodians and Asset Servicers tackle the tough issues around OTC derivatives operations.

The use of over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives is growing at a phenomenal rate throughout the Buy-Side industry as investment managers are increasingly using them as an investment. For example, over the last three years, the volume of derivatives processed by Northern Trust increased by 30% each year, and they processed as many OTC derivatives in the first quarter of 2006 as they did during the whole of 2005.

As a result of this industry-wide growth, the need to improve the operational efficiency of the back-office has never been greater. Derivatives as an asset class have the lowest level of automation across all segments of the investment industry. Automation has been a challenge due to the wide variety of instruments and rapid change in the products that are traded.

Securities Operations Forum and SmartStream Technologies are jointly hosting this focused and timely event, bringing together industry practitioners, consultants and regulators to help answer the pressing questions on the future of OTC derivatives processing.

- What are the implications of the regulators' demand for increased price transparency in derivatives valuation?

- How are risk models changing and how are they applied to pricing problems?

- What are the alternatives and what is the best route to improving timeliness of confirmation matching?

- How can you build the business case for intelligent automation of OTC derivatives processing?

Join our experts on November 14 to be part of the discussion on the future of derivatives operations.
