STAY TUNED! If you are anticipating additional search filters by attribute and level to align with the CAS Capability Model, it is coming later this Summer. As the CAS begins to code recorded sessions by specific attributes and levels (starting with the 2023 Annual Meeting), these will be tagged in the CAS database of presentations going forward and should be searchable.

But you may use the Capability Model now to help you identify topics. For example, if you want to move up one level under the content area “Functional Expertise,” you may search topics in the particular functional area to expand your knowledge.

Recorded content is searchable by Capability Model attribute and level in the CAS Online Library.

Hedge Funds Under a Regime-Switching Model

Hedge funds are becoming an increasingly important factor in financial markets. Several spectacular hedge fund failures have generated significant risk in the financial markets. These failures are commonly blamed on inaccurate models. This session will examine hedge funds under a regime-switching model which allows for stochastic changes in the underlying financial environment. The speaker, Phelim Boyle, is the winner of the 2005 SunGard and International Association of Financial Engineers (IAFE) Financial Engineer of the Year Award.

Risk-Adjusted Profitability by Line of Business

The presenters will describe possible EC attribution and return measurement systems that produce a consistent measurement of risk/return tradeoffs across corporate functions, enabling decisions to increase economic performance, control total risk, and measure profitability on a risk-adjusted basis. This capital-return system can function as a central component of a corporate ERM framework.

Defining Risk Appetite

Most insurance companies have defined their risk appetite in some form as part of their ERM program. However, many companies are using a capital-centric approach that produces three key shortcomings: it may not fully capture all enterprise risks, it does not necessarily result in an optimal level of risk, and it may not produce the desired S&P ERM rating. An emerging approach, value-based ERM, is helping companies define their risk appetite in a manner that resolves these issues.

ERM in Banking

Hone your knowledge of ERM in banking and learn some of the best practices in risk management with this unique session. Although ERM is still in its initial stages in banking (as it is everywhere), banks have made an essential contribution to developing best risk management techniques and practices within the financial services industry and beyond. In many countries, risk management regulations in banking influence other economic sectors' requirements for institutionalizing their own specific techniques. As a result, various financial and nonfinancial entities are trying to adopt bank best practices to their own situations. In this session you'll learn about some of these banking techniques and expand your knowledge on a number of recent ERM developments in banking. An experienced bank risk management and ALM practitioner will discuss the evolution of the current state of the practice and where it is headed.

Connecting Operational Risk Management and Strategic Risk Management

Through the application of strategic risk management, an organization becomes better prepared to seize future opportunities and reduce the impact of unfortunate events. The planning process aligns strategies, goals, tactics, and resources. A market value impact of an operational event can be significant. Therefore, visualizing a set of potential operational event scenarios allows a company to determine how their operations should react to optimize a range of risk-adjusted outcomes. Effective operational risk management is essential to establishing effective strategic risk management. This session will discuss the strong connection between operational risk management and strategic risk management.
