Programme Taster: What has risk and good governance got in common for staff working in the financial services sector?

What types of risks are financial institutions exposed to in the current climate? How can these be addressed at every level of the organisation, from the Board to the front-line staff? What does the “good” in good governance look like? How can this affect your role in financial services? Join me [Níall Fitzgerald] to discuss this and more at lunchtime (1-2pm) on Thursday 1st September.
