  • Hi,

     

    I work in the insurance business. I'm an actuary, a systemic risk manager (Gerente de Riesgo Sistémico). My responsability is to improve the way my company calculate the solvency margin. Nos just to fit the regulation but to be profitable too. This includes not only de insurance risk, also the operative risk and the market risk.

    Now, I'm on a particular proyect, trying to develop a quantitative and a qualitative aplication of the Solvency II European Directive inside my company. Also I work with the national insurance asociations to improve the directives in my country, following the way of thinking about the risk, that was taken into account in the Solvency II directive.

     

    Regards.

     

  • Martijn Feldbrugge - introducing myself

    As of 3 january 2011 I have my own business. The goal of my business is:

    1. support and coach management in solving issues related to business administration;
    2. inform and coach management in the international trade and fundstransfers regarding international sanctions laws and regulations.

    Go have a look on my website (http://www.bscn.nl/en/) if you want to know more on sanctions. I also provide a list of countries, listing per country what EU end US sanctions exist.

    I am interested in discussing business opportunities, consultancy assignments, exchanging knowledge and IT-business alignment. I am also interested in establishing long-lasting relationships with decision makers at financial institutions as I worked in the financial industry for the last 22 years in various assignments.

    I believe I can add value in the following areas; Troubleshooting, Compliance, Training, Knowledge transfer, ICT, Programm- and Projectmanagement.

  • Hello everyone,

     

    My name is Chris Lonn and I have over 28 years of risk management experience working in the banking and financial services sector. I have experience with the implementation of Basel II Accord when I was at HSBC. I elected to take early retirement in February of 2010 and have had a few consulting jobs since. I am currently looking for my next business opportunity somewhere in the Chicago area.

  • Hi everyone, my name is Kenneth Brown and I am a 28 year risk professional with the CIT Group in New York City. I sit on our senior credit committee and I head our Credit Administration Department. This is a new structure for CIT and I would be interested to hear from others with responsibility for Credit Administration to see what their organizations include under the umbrella of Credit Administration.

     

    I have been with CIT for essentially my entire career, and although I have many contacts outside of CIT, I am alwasy interested in establishing new relationships to learn new perspectives of the Financial community outside of my world.

     

    CIT is a 100+ year old finance company that became a bank in December '08 in an effort to obtain government support during the capital markets meltdown. Unfortunately the government support proved to be insuffecitent and CIT ultimately filled for bankruptcy protection in December '09, emerging with a much improved balance sheet in January '10. Needless to say the past two years has been quite a roller coster ride, but it looks like we are past the trough.

     

    I would love to hear other views on where everyone views the credit cycle to be, and how their regulators have worked with them during this highly unusually period.

  • Hi everybody

    May I direct you to my Linkedin profile http://uk.linkedin.com/pub/bill-may/16/a36/b10 . I am less interested in the acedemics of risk management than in providing pragmatic solutions to the full spectrum of risk that confronts business . I believe my company http://www.crisissurvivor.co.uk/ provides a unique approach and service within the global risk landscape which is fully scaleable and geographically transferable.

    With best wishes to all.

    Yours

    Bill May

If risk management is about decision making, are current risk management solutions irrelevant?

Now that the updated COSO and ISO risk management standards emphasize a connection to enterprise objectives and decision making, does this mean ERM and GRC solutions focused on risk registers and regulatory compliance are missing the true value of risk management?Will current risk management solutions evolve to integrate more decision support functionality or will standalone prescriptive analytics and other technology solutions take a more prominent role in enabling risk-informed…

A question related to classification of instruments between trading and banking book.

We have an interesting question from one of our members.       "We usually perform OTC FX transactions with clients backed-to-back on the market (with Banks). Now we are going to perform a FX swap (i.e. Spot + forward) JPY/EUR for the Bank account for 1 week at the longest. The purpose is to get EUR place @ CB for LCR compliance purpose (no trading purposes). Bank's Management think that this should be considered as a trading position and therefore be classified within the Bank's trading book.…

Plunging oil prices: curse or blessing in disguise?

The recent sudden crash of oil prices has had a major impact on the world economy, leading to many troubled faces in the international arena. The Russians fear the effects of yet another powerful hit on their economy, Venezuela seems to be considering default and the Americans are weary of the consequences for its young and emerging shale oil industry. And then you have the Middle East, where the smallest match is enough to ignite the largest fire. But are these worries really justified or…
