Sapient would like to invite you to a breakfast discussion forum to help you better understand the practical implications of recent regulatory developments. Specifically, we will brief you on the implications of the latest Fed letter and how this impacts the Buy side. We will also relay what the new derivatives processing environment will look like over the next few years.
The turmoil and dislocation in the financial markets has created challenges for all users of derivatives:
Global media reporting on the situation has fueled the sense that ‘something must be done’. Regulators are making a more practive push to establish prescriptive legislative guidelines that will aim to increase transparency and operational efficiency.
We believe that there will be dramatic changes for OTC derivatives processing environments and many financial services organizations are not ready for them. The entire industry –not just the major dealers–will need ot move rapidily to adjust to the new operating paradigm.
Event Agenda:
8:00AM-8:15AM: Hot breakfast, continental breakfast and coffee served
8:15AM-9:00AM: Presentation on OTC derivatives landscape — New regulations, anticipated market changes and recommendations on how your organization can best adapt to the new operating paradigm
9:00AM-9:30AM: Open Q&A session — your opportunity to pose specific questions to the Sapient panel of experts
*RSVP is strongly encouraged. Please contact Gail Smart Scibelli at gscibelli@sapient.com to reserve your spot.
