There are 4 types of sessions that will provide you with the answers, strategies and the opportunity to voice your opinion on such matters as MiFID II, Dodd Frank, Solvency 2 and others:

• Updates and panel discussions with the regulators: you will hear from your regulators on the latest initiatives, time-scales for the regulation becoming law, and guidelines for complying. You will be able to join a debate with the regulators to voice your opinions, and suggest changes to the proposed initiatives. Talks from the FSA and the European Commission will open the conference.
