Chicago, Ill.—Learn firsthand from a distinguished group of
experts representing the corporate, financial, energy, consulting, and academic
communities about the latest developments in enterprise risk management (ERM) at
the world's largest symposium on ERM, April 23-25 in Chicago, Illinois. The focus
of this non-profit event is on providing practical knowledge, tools, and techniques
to help risk managers enhance or establish a value-creating ERM program.
"By bringing together the ERM knowledge from a variety of
industries, this Symposium aspires to build a solid cross-disciplinary framework
for senior management to create systematic value through effective management of
risk and capital," commented Valentina Isakina, Chair, ERM Symposium Committee.
An estimated 500 risk management professionals will be able to
choose from over 20 sessions that focus on risk management strategies, modeling,
risk metrics, and capital management for consumer products corporations, banks,
asset management firms, insurance companies, pension systems, health care, and
energy firms.
In response to the need for "executive level" education about the
costs and benefits of ERM, the Symposium will also feature an "ERM Essentials for
Decision Makers" workshop on Sunday, April 23. This program has been designed for
CFOs, CEOs, and others who oversee the ERM function.
Last year's Symposium was attended by over 450 risk management
professionals including chief risk officers, chief financial officers, chief
actuaries, risk managers, investment professionals, asset/liability management
practitioners, and actuaries interested in risk management roles.
The ERM Symposium is sponsored by the Casualty Actuarial Society,
the Professional Risk Managers' International Association, and the Society of
Actuaries. Members of the press are welcome to attend the Symposium and are asked
to register with Mike Boa, CAS director of communications and research, at
703.276.3100 in advance of the meeting. For more information, visit

The Casualty Actuarial Society is an organization dedicated to the
advancement of the body of knowledge of actuarial science applied to property,
casualty and similar risk exposures. The primary goal of the Casualty Actuarial
Society is to provide education and research to help its over 4,000 members be the
leading experts in the evaluation of hazard risk and the integration of hazard risk
with strategic, financial and operational risk.
The Society of Actuaries is an educational, research and
professional organization dedicated to serving the public and Society members. The
Society's vision is for actuaries to be recognized as the leading professionals in
the modeling and management of financial risk and contingent events.
