GARP 19th Risk Convention 2018 | Global Association of Risk Professionals | 6 March 2018 | New York Marriott Marquis, 1535 Broadway, New York, NY 10036, USA

Risk managers now face rigorous demands as a result of evolving global risks and an unpredictable regulatory landscape. In an increasingly hyperconnected world, the plethora of external risks that once seemed remote can no longer be discounted, and the rapid pace of technological change has added another layer of urgency to managing risk worldwide.

On March 6-7, 2018, the GARP 19th Risk Convention will convene leading international risk management experts, policy makers, and financial risk academics in New York. They will share their most up-to-date strategies and perspectives on the topics that are vital to today’s risk management executives, and will give their professional opinions on the criteria needed to be successful in today’s worldwide financial sector.

This two-day program aims to equip a new cadre of technically and professionally educated risk managers through expert keynote sessions, targeted tracks, in-depth learning labs, and focused breakfast briefings.
