Leveraging Technology to manage Risk in the "New Normal" Wednesday October 31st, 11:30-12:00 The unprecedented business climate, with heavy regulatory oversight represents an enormous challenge for financial institutions to navigate the waters in the "new normal". As FSI's structure complex new products and learn to deal with the unstructured data deluge, risk management retains top position on every institution's agenda. In the past, the approach has been tactical and took a siloed approach to put in place a solution for an emerging risk in an asset class or business. However institutions need to view this area more holistically and devise strategies that are enterprise-wide and future ready to deal with new unforeseen risks. Fortunately technology can help. Hear how leading institutions are putting in place a blueprint to garner a 360 degree view of risk across the enterprise to garner the single version of the truth in terms of risk numbers.

Standardization models: The jungle versus the walled garden Thursday November 1st, 12:30-13:30 Standards Forum In the early days of consumer online services there were several ‘walled gardens’ - such as CompuServe and AOL – that sought to provide everything an online user might need, from email to weather forecasts, in one place. But these services could not withstand the competition from the open world-wide web and were quickly reduced to acting as regular internet service providers; the open web – enabled by open standards – was far too powerful a proposition for any single organization to take on, and a new orthodoxy was born: walled gardens don’t work. But fast forward to today and the walled garden is back. Apple’s iTunes store is the most obvious example, but there are others, for example in the world of online gaming consoles. The ‘open’ competition for iTunes comes from the ecosystem around Google’s Android OS. But this time, at least right now, there is no outright winner in the market-place: the open alternative is certainly not dominating the world of post-PC devices and apps the way the world-wide web did online services. So what can we learn from this, from a standards point of view? Can a standard be too open? Is there benefit in exercising some operational control over the deployment of a standard, to ensure it is not abused? How do we strike a balance between the need to encourage participation in a standard – to build healthy ecosystems – and to exercise control – to prevent a standard fragmenting, or its implementations becoming so diverse that they no longer interoperate? Join us for what promises to be a fascinating debate on this topic, with clear implications for how we create and deploy standards in the financial industry.
