The IRMC permanent organizers (University of Florence, NYU Stern Salomon Center) in collaboration with the SDA Bocconi School of Management invite you to join the 12th Edition of the International Risk Management Conference in Milan, Italy, June 17-18, 2019. The conference will bring together leading experts from various academic disciplines and professionals for a two days conference including three keynote plenary sessions, three parallel featured sessions and two professional workshops. The conference welcomes all relevant theoretical, methodological and empirical contributions.

Keynote Speakers:
Invited keynote speakers of the 12^th edition are Edward I. Altman (NYU Stern), Menachem Brenner (NYU Stern), Mark Carey (GARP Risk Institute), Michel Crouhy (NATIXIS), Jan Pieter Krahnen (Goethe University), Ronald Masulis (University of New South Wales) and Andrea Sironi (SDA Bocconi). Other speakers will be announced as soon as they confirm their participation.

Professional Workshops on Global Financial Challenges in Risk Management – June 18, 2019 (2:00PM-7:00PM):
1^st roundtable discussion: “Financial and Credit Vulnerability in the Future” – Chair: M. Dallocchio
2^nd roundtable discussion: “New Financial and Accounting Regulation: Challanges for Markets and Institutions” – Chair: G. Gabbi 
In the context of the IRMC 12^th Edition, the half-day workshop at SDA Bocconi School of Management will bring together policy-makers and risk management practitioners in an academic environment to illustrate, analyse and engage with challenges for markets and financial institutions. After two keynotes speeches, the roundtable discussions will explore the impact of new financial and accounting regulations and the increasing credit vulnerability of the financial system.  Adopting an explicit practitioners’ perspective, the workshop will come to grip with the interplay of regulation and risk management in a period where risk assessment methodologies are becoming increasingly complex and closely intertwined with the regulatory and supervisory framework.
