True knowledge and understanding of interest rate risk management is beyond the type of software used. The type of software used by the individual(s) and/or organization is therefore not an issue. Besides, Tuff Risk is familiar with most leading ALM software.
Conferences
Every two years, Tuff Risk Management organizes a two-day Economic Summit organized specifically for the senior finance and treasury personnel of banks, credit unions and trust companies. Speakers from a variety of academic, economic and financial sectors are brought together to discuss current business, economic and interest rate trends in the Canadian and American marketplace.
Past Economic Summits have been held in various destination resorts throughout Canada and the United States. Our philosophy is that the transfer of knowledge is better received in a comfortable resort atmosphere where family is also encouraged to be present to enjoy the amenities.
