PRMIA to Introduce Global Event Series in 35 Cities Around the World

PRMIA today announced that it will launch the PRMIA Global Event Series in February 2008. The PRMIA Global Event Series includes large one-day conferences held in major European, North American, and Asian Markets to anchor the series. In addition, events will be organized in more than 30 other global markets through PRMIA chapter meetings.

The series will unite PRMIA's membership and chapter network with a focused examination of risk issues around four themes throughout the year. "The PRMIA Global Event Series will provide an excellent opportunity for PRMIA members worldwide to be connected through the examination of a specific risk-related theme," says David Millar, PRMIA Chief Operating Officer. "Members will have the chance to hear from industry-leading experts and share with each other through discussions of current best practices in risk management."

Prior to each themed month, PRMIA will conduct a survey of its members on the event topic. A report highlighting the survey results will be written and published as part of the event series.

PRMIA chapters worldwide will host events, including full day conferences in the following cities.

February
Credit Risk
Beijing, London, New York

April
Enterprise Risk Management
Chicago, Mumbai, Paris

September
Operational Risk and Capital Allocation
Hong Kong, London, New York

November
Valuation in an Environment of High Complexity & Liquidity Risk
New York, Paris, Singapore

Check the PRMIA website at www.prmia.org in mid-October for updated information on each of the events, as well as detailed registration instructions.

I'm actually a student (after 20 years working in the banking sector) working for a thesis related to operational risk and its impacts on governance and behavioural approach.
I'm wrinting an article on that subject. I was wondring if that was of any interest for your call for papers.
Thank you for your help

I would be happy to be the speaker of one session, but unfortunately I m already travelling a lot in April and I m afraid that it would be difficult to combine both. I m certainly insterested in other opportunities.

I apologize that your comment was not reviewed prior to this date. The call for presentations for the February and April Global Event Series has now passed. I note that you state your thesis is related to operational risk. This is the theme for the September Global Event Series. Please ensure that operational risk is selected as one of your areas of interest and you will be sent the call for presentations for the September series. Please also note that the application form will be posted online soon, as the Global Event Series Webpage will soon be live.
