Credit Risk Management, Basel II, and Economic Capital: Tools and Methodologies - May 13, 2008 - Mexico

Hear from Mexico's Banking Commission, Banorte and Algorithmics

Recent stressful credit and liquidity events in the financial markets have highlighted the importance of implementing effective tools and methodologies for risk management. Algorithmics invites you to a complimentary forum on May 13th at the Hotel Four Seasons that will provide practical insights from leading experts and practitioners in the field of risk management. We are pleased to be joined by guest speakers from Mexico's Banking Commission and Banorte.

We will discuss how the Basel II Accord has changed the way banks approach credit risk management. We will also explore many potential issues around credit risk management today, ranging from Basel II Pillar 2, to the current sub-prime crisis, to integrated market and credit risk.

Algorithmics has been successfully providing risk management software and services to global financial markets participants for over 18 years.
