Dechert LLP is proud to sponsor the 2013 Fall Compliance Conference presented by the ACA Compliance Group and ACA Insight.
On October 10, Dechert partner Holland West will participate on a panel discussing Global Derivatives Regulations. As the world marches toward a unified system of derivatives regulations, including clearance and settlement, many advisers (and their counterparties) are struggling with interpreting the legislation and understanding what it means for them and their clients. This session will provide guidance on the new regulations coming into play, the Dodd Frank and EMIR ISDA protocols, and the “substituted compliance” regime.
On October 11, Dechert partner Aisha Hunt will participate on a panel discussing Compliance Considerations in Managing a '40 Act Fund. With “liquid alternatives” being the new “in” thing in fund management and the continuing interest by fund companies in expanding their sub-advisory base, more and more advisers are looking at the potential of advising or sub-advising a mutual fund. This session will discuss the issues that any adviser should consider when contemplating moving into the ’40 Act fund space, including governance issues, trading restrictions, and the Fund’s compliance obligations.
The conference will be held at the Fairmont Hotel. To view the Agenda at a Glance, please click here.
