NorthPoint speaks at the Hedge Fund CFO Association
NorthPoint's Vice President and Partner, Johan Glozman, will be speaking on a panel hosted by SEI covering all different aspects of the Clearing and Settlement process titled "Preparing For CDS Settlement" at Le Parker Meridien hotel in New York on Thursday, October 6, 2011.
The panel will review:
- The current interpretation of the mandates dictated by Dodd-Frank with respect to clearing OTC derivatives that buy-side firms need to know in order to prepare a strategy to be in compliance. This includes known and estimated deadlines, requirements by asset type, firm type/size/trade volume, and market
- Existing and likely future options for the settlement and clearing
- Settlement workflows for communication between parties/platforms, margins, netting, etc
- The impact that these changes will have on the Operations department within funds
- Changes and enhancements that will be needed to be made to the funds' IT systems to address these new workflows and much more!
A panel of industry-recognized OTC derivatives experts will present their individual recommendations and predictions on what the buy side should be doing to prepare for Dodd-Frank. The panel will be comprised of firms representing all parties involved in the trading, settling, and clearing of OTC derivatives including representatives from a hedge fund, prime broker, settlement platform, fund administrator, and NorthPoint.
The event is by invitation-only. Hedge Fund CFOs who are association members are welcome to attend this event. For more information on joining the Hedge Fund CFO Association or for details on this quarterly event, please contact us via email or at 212.819.1700.
