Will the New Basel Rules and European Problems Create a Capital Shortage for U.S. Companies?
Todd Maclin, CEO of Consumer and Business Banking, JP Morgan Chase, New York | In light of the financial crisis beginning in 2007, the effects of which are still being felt, especially in Europe, the European Commission adopted in 2010 new capital requirement rules for European banks under an accord known as Basel III. The rules will be phased in through 2013 and will deal with capital adequacy, stress testing and market liquidity risk. The US Federal Reserve will impose the same standards on American banks. Proponents advocate that the rules are necessary to ensure the integrity of the financial system. Critics charge that the rules are onerous and will slow economic growth.

Professional Development - 4:30 pm
Enterprise Risk Management
Michael A. Wilson, Principal, KPMG Risk Consulting | The intense focus on risk oversight and the populist backlash against excessive risk-taking can cause companies to let critical growth opportunities slip away. This presentation will highlight ways companies can structure their risk management oversight responsibilities while still driving the company forward.
