Underscoring the important role compliance plays within Cayman’s financial services sector, Cayman Finance is pleased to support the Caribbean Regional Compliance Association’s 2012 conference as a sponsor of the event.

Taking place on 1st and 2nd March at The Hyatt Regency in Trinidad, the CRCA Conference – entitled ‘The Elephant in the Room’ – will give delegates the opportunity to learn about a host of vital topics on the subject, including how to deal with compliance threats to the region, a look at the most recent regulatory changes, as well as risk assessment, corruption and corporate responsibility.

Cayman Finance Chairman Richard Coles says Cayman Finance, as the umbrella representative of the financial services industry in Cayman, is delighted to be part of such an authoritative event on the subject.

“Cayman Finance strives to remain at the cutting edge of issues as important as compliance and how they relate to the industry here in Cayman. We expect that this year’s CRCA Conference will deliver some thought-provoking discussion,” he said. “In particular, we are anticipating an interesting presentation by Dawne Spicer from the CFATF who will be discussing the Caribbean Financial Action Task Force’s strategic direction over the next five years, the best and worst AML practices in the Caribbean and how the fourth round of Mutual Evaluations will improve the Caribbean’s global position.”

Conference Chair Carolyn Hanson, from RBC Royal Bank (a gold sponsor of the event), says that support from organisations such as Cayman Finance means the conference can continue to deliver high quality presentations from world class speakers.
