The global financial crisis has undoubtedly brought risk management back to the forefront. Central banks around the world have been implementing stimulus packages in hope for an economic recovery. Amidst heated debates of the long-term effects of such measures, investment managers are realigning their asset allocation strategies and diversifying their exposure to the USD and EURO. Risk managers, on the other hand, face challenges in light of growing uncertainties in the reliability of quant models, the evolving regulatory requirements and the future of stress testing.

Asia Risk 2009 returns with a well-researched programme to address the challenges and opportunities in risk management, investments, derivative trading and asset liability management.
