Risk magazine is proud to introduce its 6th annual Credit Risk Summit

This year’s event will provide a practical look at the major issues affecting credit risk management in the banking industry. The Credit Risk Summit will examine the lessons we can learn from the credit crisis and how you can use these to improve credit risk management in your business.

Benefits of attending include:

• Learn practical advice you can implement straight away when back in the office to improve credit risk management in your company
• Discuss the impact of the Big Bang Protocol
• Examine the need for central clearing houses for credit default swaps
• Share best practice in credit risk modelling and stress testing
• Improve your company’s pricing and hedging of counterparty risk
• Ensure your business survives current market illiquidity and is able to meet increased regulatory capital requirements
• Network with senior industry professionals and make contacts for life

“If the recent financial crisis has taught us anything about risk management it is that credit risk, market and risk liquidity risk are intimately connected. Understanding how to effectively manage these risks within the new regulatory environment is the most pressing issue facing risk managers today. This conference represents the start of the effort to pull these together.”

Alistair McLeod, Head of Portfolio Analytics, Barclays Capital

“Having attended this event last year, I am looking forward to hearing this year’s presentations. It’ll be an excellent opportunity to discuss credit market developments with others from across the industry.”

Dr. Helen Haworth, Vice President, Quantitative Credit Strategy, Credit Suisse
