The workshop titled ‘Risk Management – Three lines of defence and a culture shift’ on 12 July 2013 will give a global and local perspective on risk management including how risk management and the ownership of risk management have changed following global and local financial crises.
The workshop, which is also open for chief risk officers, accountants, financial analysts, stock market industrialists, finance managers, auditors, treasury officers, leasing officers, risk analysts and commercial insurance professionals, will be conducted by Gavin D. Rosairo, Chief Investment and Risk Officer of AIA Insurance Lanka PLC, who commands a wealth of experience spanning over 13 years from the capital markets and fund management industry.
During the workshop, participants will be educated on the ‘three lines of defence’ and how it supports stronger governance.
The challenges in rolling out an organisation wide risk management framework along with how to overcome these potential challenges will also be elucidated in detail by the resource person during the workshop.
The workshop will house a multitude of topical areas which will be covered by the resource person during an evening session, scheduled to be held at the Institute’s Colombo 7 premises. The program will also educate professionals on how to design and rollout a risk management framework, thereby ensuring long term success of an organisation.
