The Center of Financial Studies of National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and  SAS Greece, Cyprus Bulgaria are organizing this special event about Capital Management:

Capital Management is more than just a finance - risk exercise on paper. It is an entire framework of strategic importance especially in uncertain times.

Especially in countries heavily struck by the financial crisis, like Greece and Cyprus, the financial industry is confronted with a severe capital shortage, driven primarily by new regulations and the increased volatility of the financial markets.

More than ever now it is of critical importance for Banks to effectively establish a sound Capital Management Framework in order to optimize their capital usage and anticipate any possible issues that might arise in the near future. The importance is on the alignment of Capital with Risk and Strategy in order to better plan and structure the capital base to support future strategic objectives.
