The Sibos 2010 conference programme has been built around three
major themes:
Regulation
The banking
industry’s collective response to regulation following the
financial crisis is examined as well as the operational impact of
financial reform. In addition, the conference will consider whether
the banking sector should – and if so, how – engage with regulators
earlier and more collaboratively.
