From BP and Lehman Brothers to News Corporation and the Metropolitan Police - corporate governance continues to hit the headlines. With the complexity of modern business, an uncertain operating environment and the relentless scrutiny of media and stakeholders, as well as the formal responsibilities imposed by corporate governance codes, the need for boards to properly understand and manage their risks has never been greater.

“ Last year’s Risk Leaders’ Conference gave senior risk managers a great opportunity to network and share ideas and thoughts on the future of risk management. Sharing best practice across business sectors gives people new ideas to bring to their own industries. I can highly recommend attendance at the 2011 conference and I’m very much looking forward to it myself.” Elaine HeyworthHeadofRiskManagement,EverythingEverywhere
