Fintel - 2nd Annual Global Financial Services Centres Conference

19 May 2009

Reshaping the World's Financial Services Centres Conference

Dublin Castle, Dublin, Ireland

New business models, the changed regulatory and taxation landscape and the implications for international financial services centres.

Financial centres, both large and small, face unprecedented uncertainty as regulatory and tax reforms are planned.

Business models in banking, securities distribution, funds and insurance have been revised, challenged, and in some cases completely re-written. The implications for financial centres and the institutions doing business in those centres is examined by leading drivers of the global agenda.

Sweeping reforms to financial regulation are coming, alongside new measures to control tax havens, regulatory blacklists of financial centres, and measures to rein in shadow banking systems - all part of a continuing response of Governments to the credit crisis, including the governments of the US, the UK, Germany and France.
