This year's 4th Annual International Regulatory Affairs Symposium focuses on “Being an Effective Regulator in Challenging Times”.

Regulation remains very much in the public eye as the financial crisis continues to be unresolved.

Within the regulatory fraternity, there are a surprisingly large number of creative and innovative ideas relating to improving the quality of regulators and regulation.

The debate continues about how to find the right balance: Foresight, heavy intervention, or attempting to move away from sanctions and enforcement. Clearly different sectors of activity may need to be approached in entirely different ways, and this international symposium will examine a wide range of models and new approaches to improving the regulatory culture and that of organisations which are subject to regulation.

Why you should attend?

High Profile Speakers

The Symposium promises an internationally recognised line-up of leading figures and expert speakers who will offer an invaluable insight into the latest initiatives and developments in the field of regulatory affairs. As well as hearing key presentations, there are also ample opportunities for delegates to engage in interactive discussion and debate.

Subjects to be discussed will include:

  • The advantages and drawbacks of regulation in the global village
  • The capacity of the developing world to cope with regulatory systems designed in different contexts
  • Regulating markets effectively to maximise the benefits of competition
  • Delegates’ experiences of regulation from around the world
  • Effective responses to regulatory failure from a range of options
  • Establishing an ethical culture in organisations
  • Raising professional standards for competency in regulators
  • Improving the performance of regulators
  • What does the future regulatory landscape look like in terms of sanctions, intervention, inspection, enforcement or co-operation

Networking

The Symposium provides an invaluable opportunity to share best practice and network with speakers, practitioners and colleagues involved in regulatory affairs from across the world. Over 3½ hours of networking time is scheduled into the programme in order to support the exchange of ideas and encourage delegates to engage in thought-provoking topical debate. The Symposium will also incorporate a cocktail reception to facilitate further informal discussion and networking.
