It occurred to me that a blog would be an excellent way to extend these bi-lateral conversations to a multilateral framework open to all interested parties. For many of the topics we will cover, there will be no definitive answers. Nevertheless, a variety of perspectives and opinions often helps to clarify the problems that these issues inevitably raise.”

In this role he advises SunGard customers and business units on risk management functionality and development priorities in their software applications. He also speaks frequently at industry conferences and seminars and writes a monthly column for Risk magazine.
