The Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA) has announced that its fourth annual international regulatory forum will be held on 19 November at the Fairmont Hamilton Princess Hotel.
The keynote speaker for the day event will be Dame Amelia Fawcett, chairman of the hedge funds standards board.
Panel sessions will cover banking and asset management issues in the morning and insurance developments in the afternoon.
The forum will discuss the misconceptions around risk transfer vs. shadow insurance in relation to the captive sector, and the future of alternatives in risk transfer for both regulators and the market.
Other topics up for debate will include banking supervision and global financial stability, regulatory priorities vs. business development in the asset management arena, and global regulatory initiatives for commercial insurance and implications for the Bermuda market.
Speakers will include commissioner James Donelon, president of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, and Sir Andrew Large, former deputy governor of the Bank of England.
Jeremy Cox, CEO of the BMA, said: “The BMA is fortunate to once again have a range of highly recognised speakers from the top of their respective fields joining us. They will be sharing knowledge and strategic insights on global regulatory issues that are highly relevant to the Bermuda market.”
“We’re very pleased to have attracted this group of leaders from Bermuda and overseas for the event, and happy to facilitate access to additional pertinent information for the local financial services sector via the forum.”
