Meeting to be chaired by Simone Wray
Presentation and discussion by Marsh |
| Speaker |
Richard Tolley, Managing Consultant, Marsh Strategic Risk Practice. |
| Background |
When the Combined Code was first introduced in 1998, it provided many listed UK companies with their first regulatory requirement to report on risk. Now following it's tenth year, Marsh commissioned a comprehensive new study that examines how the reporting of risk - and the activities that this can often represent - has evolved over the last 10 years. The session will present the results of the study and provide an opportunity to debate what they mean with your industry peer group. |
