Two conference presentations this month

Happy New Year; had a busy fall and I see I didn't get around to posting.

Two upcoming conference presentations this month, in both of which I'll focus on parallels between the private and pubic sectors with an emphasis on risk management on organizations that straddle that dividing line in terms of governance, and therefore decision processes and risk appetite.

• January 18, Canadian pension funds' risk managers' roundtable (invitation only, organized by the CPPIB), Toronto. I'm presenting on "hard to measure" risk, focus on macroeconomic and geopolitical investment risks.
  
• January  22, Risk management for the public sector, Ottawa. Panelist on risk management transformation programs; lessons learned from such programs at public and quasi-public institutions around the world.
