PRMIA on Data and Analytics

Final presentation at the PRMIA event yesterday was by Clifford Rossi and was entitled “The Brave New World of Data & Analytics Following the Crisis: A Risk Manager’s Perspective”.

Clifford got his presentation going with a humorous and self-depricating start by suggesting that his past employment history could in fact be the missing “leading indicator” for predicting orgnisations in crisis, having worked at CitiGroup, WaMu, Countrywide, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.…

SIFMA declines…

I almost forgot to mention that I went along to the SIFMA event (previously known as the SIA show) last week to take a look around. For those of you not familiar with the SIFMA/SIA event, then it was the biggest financial services technology event I had ever attended/exhibited, taking up 5 massive floors at the Hilton NY.…

PRMIA on Systemic Risk Part #2 – plus the OFR

Lewis Alexander (ex-US Treasury) carried on the theme of systemic risk at the PRMIA seminar “Risk, Regulation and Financial Technology & Identifying the Next Crisis“. He started by saying that whilst systemic risk was a risk to the economy and industry as a whole, systemic risk was also relevant to the risks (such as market or credit) that a risk manager at an individual institution needs to assess.…

PRMIA on Systemic Risk Part #1

I attend a PRMIA seminar this morning at the offices of Ernst & Young with the rather long title of “Risk, Regulation and Financial Technology & Identifying the Next Crisis“.

First up was Matthew Richardson of NYU Stern with a presentation entitled “Identifying the Next Crisis“.…

A glass of red and contrary ideas on Triple-A risk

I enjoyed myself at the drinks reception after the NYU-Poly event. Nothing new in that I guess for those of you that know me well and like me find it difficult to resist a glass or two of red wine. Whilst attempting to circulate (I am almost 2 metres tall, so rather than "circulate" I think a more appropriate word might unfortunately be "intimidate"), I struck up a conversation with an interesting gentleman by the name of Per Kurowski.…

Removing the punchbowl at NYU-Poly

A few of choice quotes from the rest of the day at NYU-Poly:

"The difference between economists and meteorologists is that meteorologists can at least agree on what happended yesterday" "A bubble can only be identified from a trend when the bubble bursts" "Capital flows from strange places to strange destinations in today's financial markets" "In a Basel III world, the stock price of Morgan Stanley would rise if its investment banking division were sold off" "Basel III is a good attempt at managing systemic risk" "Hedge Funds are the risk takers of the future" "Hedge Funds have the partnership mentality that the commercial banks have lost and should regain" "CCPs should not compete on risk management" "Economists are trained to predict everything except the future" "Dodd Frank was a missed opportunity to consolidate the many regulators in the United States" "Washing D.C.…

Regulation – Putting out the fire once you know where the fire is – NYU-Poly

The first panel session at NYU-Poly after Nassim Taleb concerned itself with the increasing competition between banks and insurers, which I didn’t think reached any great conclusions as to where things are heading but did give background for why banks and insurers are increasingly offering the same services (disintermediation, regulation and industry structural changes being the main reasons).…

IKEA and Market Risk Management – Choice is a worrying thing!

Risk management and data control remain at the top of the agenda at many financial institutions. Many have said that the recent crisis highlighted the need for more consistent, transparent, high quality data management, which I totally agree with (but working for Xenomorph, I would I guess!). …
