Risk Management Practices in Asian Financial Institutions
(Organized in cooperation with Standard and Poor's)
Friday, 10 May
12:00 noon - 2:00 p.m.
Recent economic crises highlighted the need for substantial improvements in risk management among Asia's banks. This was reinforced by the Basel II Accord, which has resulted in a flurry of activity as Asia's banks seek to introduce more effective processes to identify, measure, and manage risk. Banks in Asia have made considerable progress across many fronts in recent years-however, many challenges remain.
Roy Taub, executive managing director of Standard and Poor's Risk Solutions Group will present the key findings of a recent global risk management survey undertaken by Standard and Poor's and assess the state of Asian banks' risk management practices.
