Posted on 30 November 2011

Professor Steven Toms from the Accounting and Finance Group along with Professor Allan Grody (Financial InterGroup) and the Peter Hughes FCA - former Head of Risk Management, JP Morgan Chase will be presenting an international webinar on how risk can be managed by using a novel risk accounting solution.

International Webinar on Risk Exposure and Attribution Management through Accounting Risk measurement has been part of the regulatory agenda in financial services since the first Basel Capital Accord was introduced in 1988. This and subsequent capital accords presumed that the disciplines developed to report on regulatory capital through the Basel lens would, in turn, spawn innovation towards embedding a risk culture and engendering a thoughtful understanding of risk appetite in financial firms. However, these ambitions have remained largely unfulfilled as evidenced by the global financial crisis that materialized even though the evolved discipline of risk management was all about its prevention.
