"We are very pleased by the strong turnout and the diversity of opinion expressed by the speakers and the participants," said PRMIA DC Chapter regional director Christopher Whalen. "A very frank exchange of views occurred today. This can only help risk practitioners better understand the tough conditions in the markets. We look forward to working again with our colleagues at the CFA Institute and our speakers in future events."
