The Impact of Compliance
on World Financial Markets
Keynote speakers: Mr. Paul Sarbanes & Mr. Michael
Oxley
LexisNexis is delighted to announce the inaugural launch of the Asia
2007 Investment Risk and Regulatory Summit, which will feature keynote
speeches by former U.S. senator Paul Sarbanes and former U.S.
congressman Michael Oxley, co-authors of the world famous
Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
The one day summit, being held at the JW Marriott
Hong Kong on Tuesday, 4th December, will take an in-depth look at the
opportunities and threats of financial compliance and regulation on capital
markets in Asia and the rest of the world.
When Sarbanes-Oxley was
introduced in 2002, it was seen as the biggest overhaul of US securities
regulations in recent history. The Act came in the aftermath of Enron, Tyco and
WorldCom – all high profile listed companies that collapsed due to failed
corporate governance, accounting abuses and outright greed.
Now five
years later on, understand what impact Sarbanes-Oxley has had on Asia’s
financial markets. Can regulatory control really prevent future corporate
scandals from occurring or does it simply restrict companies from being able to
maximize shareholder return.
For this reason, the chance to hear the
champions of this pioneer law speak thoroughly about the past, present and
future of their Act is a not-to-be missed opportunity for all CEOs, CFOs,
partners, presidents and principals of public companies and soon to be listed
firms. Delegates and sponsors alike will want to use this fantastic opportunity
to get abreast of all the hot topics in the professional services advisory
market today.
