Jacob Fleming to place strategy on Capital Allocation
Jacob Fleming leading B2B strategic meeting organizers have arranged a European Forum on Capital Allocation, taking place on 16th & 17th June 2008 in London. The role of capital allocation in the recent credit crisis has now increased. Hence this is the perfect opportunity to discuss with leading practitioners, the key challenges and opportunities that will be raised throughout the two day seminar.
The role of capital allocation in the recent credit crisis has now increased even more. Hence this is exactly the right time to discuss the key challenges and opportunities that will be raised.
This forum will highlight concerns relating to the implementation of Basel II, ensuring that risks are measured effectively and that the right amount of capital is set aside to cover those risks. It will be an opportunity for in-depth understanding and for updating the knowledge arising from the Basel II period.
Delegates can expect to receive quality industry knowledge from reputable financial leaders and use this one-off opportunity to look for advice or raise any of their own concerns for discussion.
The conference chairman from GARP Risk Academy will share his expert knowledge through a case study on ‘Exploiting the importance of liquidity in capital management.’ This will delve into issues such as Micro versus Macro; assess the ways of adjusting liquidity to risk and the Black Hole Theory!
The Policy Advisor from FSA will inform delegates of the regulators perspective and what they are looking for from financial institutions. There continues to be conflicts between regulators requirements and bank processes which will be discussed and tackled at the event.
The Managing Director at UBS will present a case study to understand and identify the different risks and, for each, what the potential impacts could be on specific institutions. He will also explore new risks to be considered emerging from IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) that may also have repercussions.
The event will conclude with an interactive lunch so that all attendees will have the opportunity to summarize the main topics raised over the conference and matters can be discussed with their peers on a more informal level.
Other invited speakers, range from Financial Institutions including; Danske Bank, Dexia Bank, Deutsche Bank, Bank Austria Creditanstalt, Societe Generale and BNP Paribas.

JF Apex innovates with HR Technology
Jacob Fleming Apex has designed and organised a top of the line ‘HR Technology Summit’ in response to the latest developments in technology being used in HR management. JF Apex has personally invited HR Decision Makers to join the Summit which will provide a programme dedicated to learning about these processes from a selection of Senior HR industry speakers.
Taking place on the 3rd, 4th and 5th November 2008 at the five star A.B. Skipper Hotel in Barcelona the event is also open to solution providers to take advantage of unique networking opportunities in a 1-2-1 format. This is an opportunity to demonstrate what they can offer directly to an attentive and relevant market.
The use of technology in HR management has grown considerably in recent years. Human resource Information Systems (HRIS) have developed from being largely used for administrative and data recording purposes to being applied in processes such as recruitment, workforce planning, flexible benefits, absence management, learning, development and employee engagement.
By automating as many processes as possible, HR has been able to significantly reduce the time spent on routine administrative tasks, allowing them time to manage the HR function in a strategic manner to become true partners in the business.
Despite the considerable growth in the application of technology in HR, this area is still under-researched in terms of comprehensive examination of the impact of technology on people management, communication and the HR function itself.
Participants at this event will discover what the effective IT processes and programs are from the expert speakers. Nokia’s Director of Finance and Control for Global HR will be attending as one of these speakers. In mid-2007 Nokia employed over 50 000 people from more than 120 nationalities. This presentation will share how Nokia has achieved human capital reporting both internally and externally and how workforce metrics has influenced key decision making processes in the various lines of business.
Online recruiting forms one of the central pillars of a smart staffing strategy for firms in every economic sector. Leader of HR Web Solutions at Lufthansa AG will sharing the advantages that e-recruitment has given them in regards to resource management. He will present the different ways in which online recruiting can be used, the challenges and how things may develop in the future.
Another key speaker at the event comes as the Senior Business Director at BT. This presentation will highlight the benefits and challenges of employee engagement by implementing a flexible working environment.
The Director of Corporate HR Strategy & Controlling at Bertelsmann will also be contributing to the event. He will lay out the role and responsibility of HR departments during merger and acquisition transactions. He will be sharing which tools can be used to support relevant issues, to make results visible and accessible and even support decision making.
Other speakers are scheduled to attend from HSBC, Cargill, Adecco, Whirlpool, UCB Group, Medtronic and Yahoo. With such an expert array of speakers this event promises to be a unique opportunity to refine, streamline and create strategies to drive HR functions forward.
