European Asset Allocation under Solvency II

Event start date: 18 Apr 2013 ,

With the implementation date for Solvency II drawing closer, it is becoming clear that asset allocation under this legislation will become a topic of great importance for insurers and asset managers alike. The challenges of altering investment strategies to account for the capital charge are compounded by the low interest rate environment and precarious situation in the eurozone. Under these circumstances, it is vital that those responsible for the management of insurance assets know how to tackle the far reaching effects of this legislation.

This marcus evans conference will demonstrate how insurers and asset managers can develop asset allocation strategies which not only ensure compliance with Solvency II, but are optimised to provide a competitive advantage.

Key topics addressed will include meeting reporting requirements and adjusting investment strategies to achieve the maximum possible return. Attending this premier event will enable you to: Learn how portfolios need to be redesigned in order to comply with Solvency II • Understand the accounting implications of Solvency II for asset management • Discover how to optimise real estate investments

Event end date: June 12, 2013, 5:00 pm EST
Location: New York, NY

The GFMI 2nd Edition Model Risk Conference will help banks understand what the new guidelines really mean for them in practice and how they could successfully incorporate them into their existing model risk management activities.

New Areas of Focus in 2013:

--Practical application of model risk; driven by the OCC and Fed policy paper

--Stress tests, back tests and scenario testing

--Role of internal audit in model risk management

--Optimizing model risk governance in the organization

Key Drivers of the 2013 Conference:

1. Recent scandals within the industry, including the SEC case with Barr Roseberg and the JP Morgan London Whale case – resulted from overlooked and undermanaged model risk

2. The OCC and the Fed have recently released new guidelines on model risk management, which every bank should incorporate – as a result, banks need to modify their existing model risk management practices

Event end date: 13th November 2013, 18:00
Venue: Mid Valley Exhibition Centre (MVEC)
Location: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Global consumer spending remained cautious in the aftermath of the global financial crisis persistently in these uncertain economic times. However, a strong performance and rapid development have fuelled a steady growth in the Asia retail market, with a fair number of both international and domestic players expanding their operations.

As the regional governments have been putting in efforts to help modernize and upgrade the retail outlets of domestic small independent players, others that fail to modernize quickly may find themselves being squeezed out of the market.
