“Not only do you get to hear the Regulators outlining their most important priorities for the coming year and the opportunity to ask the regulators your questions regarding the future of the finance industry.
“But you will be able to connect with many of the most senior representatives of the financial services sector, who will certainly be there at this prestigious, long-running event.
