International operations, commercial complexity and increased regulation are among the issues set to be scrutinised at a day-long series of events for risk managers in Belgium
The global risk agenda will form the central theme of two special events for risk managers taking place next month in Belgium.
The aim is to help risk managers tackle increasing business complexity and accomplish more without necessarily using more resources. Effectively – working smarter.
Vlerick Business School in Gent, Belgium, will be the focus of both events organised exclusively for risk professionals on 14 March.
Environmental, risk and social consulting services provider ERM, will organise a morning event about the risk management of environmental, social and governance (ESG) associated risks.
Speakers comprise among others Alvar de Wolff from AAC Capital on ESG in private equity; Prof Dr Hans Bruyninckx from the University of Leuven on sustainable development and governance from an NGO perspective, and Pascal Mallien from Baker & McKenzie on the legal risks, liabilities and financial impacts of ESG.
The ERM event starts at 7.30am with coffee, breakfast and registration and will conclude at 12.15pm, followed by a lunch. For the full programme and registration, please visit www.erm.com/EGS-Risk-Conference-March2013. There is no charge to attend, but places are limited.
