YOUR CHANCE TO GET CLOSER TO CORPORATE TREASURERS

Never has it been more important for banks to understand payments from the client perspective, so this year we have added even more to the speaker faculty including:

• John Gleason, EMEA Regional Treasurer, DELL

There will be ample opportunities for interaction, included a seated lunch with corporate treasurers in attendance at IPS. And we will once again be offering free delegate places to corporate treasurers, to maximise the opportunity for banks to enter into a productive dialogue with corporates throughout the duration of the four days.

YOUR CHANCE TO GET CLOSER TO THE REGULATORS

There can be no doubt than the regulatory response to the global financial crisis will have many implications for transaction banks and there is still much uncertainty about what changes will be made. Don’t miss the chance to hear from our distinguished panel of global regulators about why they think the future isn’t what it used to be:

• Sir John Gieve, Former Deputy Governor for Financial Stability, THE BANK OF ENGLAND
• Masamichi Kono, Vice Commissioner For International Affairs, FINANCIAL SERVICES AGENCY, JAPAN
• Philippe Mongars, Deputy Director of Financial Stability Directorate, BANQUE DE FRANCE
• John Burns, Senior Associate, Retail Policy, UK FINANCIAL SERVICES AUTHORITY
• Wiebe Ruttenberg, Head of the Market Integration Division, DG Payments and Market Infrastructure, EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK.

POST EVENT REPORT FOR MORE EFFECTIVE KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT

Once again an expert journalist will produce a report that will be e-mailed to all delegates one week after the event, at no extra cost. Summarising all the key points from presentations, roundtables and interviews this really will make your life easier. It will reduce the pressure to take notes at the event; be an invaluable reference tool afterwards and be an easy way to bring those colleagues who were unable to attend up to speed.

FREE PLACES FOR CORPORATE TREASURERS

Once again we will be offering free delegate places to corporate treasurers, to maximise the opportunity for banks to enter into a productive dialogue with corporates. Please email Katie.Gwyn-Williams@informa.com to apply.
