Fantastic event. The CRO discussion was particularly insightful.

Head of risk Great Southern Bank

I really enjoyed some of the panels where there was seniority and different perspectives - e.g. conduct panel was fabulous, as well as the derivatives session.

Senior manager Westpac

The speakers were outstanding - brought a macro perspective to the issues that we face as risk professionals on a daily basis.
