- 2nd Annual Operational Risk Managment Forum 2010
-
Mar 1, 2010 - Mar 3, 2010,
Bahrain Saudi ArabiaOrganizations have reevaluated their risk management programs in wake of the recent financial crisis, realizing that operational failures behind the U.S. subprime crisis and recent instances of unauthorized trading suggest that existing risk management paradigms just don't work. Traditionally, risk was viewed in terms of financial loss but recent events have identified a new dimension of risk, relating it to business activities, strategic objectives and reputation.
Operational Risk is a risk arising from execution of a company's business functions, influenced by both internal and external variables. It has to be acknowledged and accounted for, not only as a compliance issue, but as an integral component to prudent business operations. Operational Risk can have critical impact on operational, financial and the reputational aspects of an organization. Hence, deciding the correct approach, framework and metrics is an inherent component of establishing a sound risk management practice.
The conference will serve as a platform to confer the diverse approaches to operational risk management with experts and learn the requisites to constructing a secure operational risk framework. Metrics utilized will be evaluated in order to combine results from different business functions to afford a holistic operational risk overview for the organization. These, in turn, will dictate how Op Risk can be used for strategic decision making. - full details
- Cost-Effective Intelligent Green Building
-
Mar 1, 2010 - Mar 2, 2010,
SingaporeArchitects, contractors and property owners around the world are constantly facing new challenges in building green. These include increasing demand for environmentally conscious construction, stringent regional building standards, as well as demand for greater convenience by end users. Building and construction in Asia are no exception. With forthcoming mandatory green building practices and in the midst of a fierce fight for survival, there is a higher tendency to compromise on efficient resources in pursuit of cost savings.
An “Intelligent Green Building” is defined as a building which is energy efficient and has little or no negative impact on the environment thanks to better design, and construction techniques including improved indoor environment quality, energy conservation and heat recovery technology, the reutilization of sustainable building materials, and installation.
Green'-Edge Insights On:
* Evaluation of regional and international green building rating systems
* Implementing technologies, techniques and materials to meet green standards
* Refurbishment of existing buildings for energy savings
* Nanotechnology applications for sustainable green construction, improving indoor air quality and safety
* Cost-benefit analysis of building green
* International case studies: Construction costs vs. green features - full details
