Now is the time to prepare for compliance challenges under the Dodd-Frank Act and harvest business opportunities these regulatory changes create, according to industry experts convened by RiskAdvisory, a division of SAS, for its webcast, “Dodd-Frank 2012: To Compliance and Beyond.” The webcast is available on demand at RiskAdvisory.com by clicking here.

This complimentary hour-long thought leadership event addresses the full range of Dodd-Frank Title VII challenges, from regulatory shifts to changing business obligations to data management issues.

“The weighty new Dodd-Frank regulations demand a revision of both business practices and technology solutions, from determining the correct compliance status for your company to ensuring your systems can adequately collect, retain and report transaction-related data,” said Ian Jones, RiskAdvisory senior strategist for commodity risk and webcast host. “The time has come to fully prepare your operations and your systems for successful compliance.”

Jones was joined in the webcast by a panel of leading industry observers including Mike Gill of Crowell & Moring, James Allison of ConocoPhillips, Thomas Lord of PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Patrick Woody of SAS to discuss a checklists of mission-critical “to do’s” for companies seeking to achieve regulatory readiness.

  • When Dodd-Frank regulations will be phased in and the key challenges to energy and commodity companies.
  • How companies can manage their compliance status and pursue opportunities in a disrupted marketplace.
  • The mission-critical business and data processes that must be converted to sustainable compliance practices.
  • The realignment of critical data collection and reporting processes that can avoid Dodd-Frank regulatory pitfalls.
