The Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) and CBOE Futures Exchange (CFE) will host the CBOE Risk Management Conference (RMC) Europe, from September 3 through 5, 2014, at the Powerscourt Hotel in Enniskerry, County Wicklow, Ireland.
The annual CBOE RMC is the premiere financial industry conference designed for institutional users of equity derivatives and volatility products. Now in its 30th year in the U.S., this September's event in Ireland marks the 3rd annual CBOE RMC Europe.
