The conference sessions will cover the evolving role of general counsel into the areas of global enterprise risk from both operational and legal risk assessment perspectives. ''Enterprise risk management'' frameworks have been the standard for financial services companies to leverage risk for financial gain and prevent loss. These strategies encompass various types of risk, including financial, operational, and market risk. General Counsel who comprehend possible risks throughout their organizations can use risk to help create value for the company and prevent costly legal events.
Top law departments are using new techniques, staffing solutions, tools and proactive outreach to embrace the challenge of creating enterprise risk management framework. Attending the Enterprise Risk Management for the General Counsel provides an opportunity to quickly learn international regulatory developments (many of which require reserves and reporting mechanisms for risk valuation and assessment) and to get up to speed on evaluating all types of risk and turning it to your company's advantage. You'll also get to see several blueprints and case studies from leading corporate counsel and learn how some of the world's best companies are using tools such as early warning systems, intellectual property management services, litigation support services, electronic discovery tools and matter management systems to help them understand and embrace risk.
Topics of the conference include The Litigation Risk Model, Sounding the Alarm for Management and the Board, Brand Reputation: One Risk for All, Reducing Risks from Electronically Stored Information, and Lessons Learned from the Subprime Crisis.
