Managing Risk for Chief Financial Officers 2019 | Financial Times | 4 July 2019 | Bracken House, 1 Friday St, London EC4M 9BT, UK

Political uncertainty, market volatility, low interest rates and increasing pension liabilities, as well as the cost and risk of defined benefit schemes are significant challenges facing custodians of corporate balance sheets. As Chief Financial Officers look to mitigate funding volatility and ease the burden on their balance sheets, they are increasingly turning to Integrated Risk Management (IRM) to get a clear understanding of the risks. In the quest to mitigate cash flow and alleviate the impact on balance sheets, what strategies should companies consider? Would they benefit from re-risking assets in the current market? Could alternative financing solutions improve business results and provide funding stability?

This exclusive roundtable dinner, co-hosted by the Financial Times and Mercer will bring together Chief Financial Officer, Finance Directors and senior financial decision makers from different industry sectors to discuss how companies are collaborating with all stakeholders to deliver a robust IRM framework, gain insights into how sponsors are evaluating the risks and opportunities of different cashflow scenarios, and identify efficient financing solutions.
