The 6th annual FIMA conference, which took place in London on 11-13 November, was a great event with many different features. Despite the recent market turbulence, the event attracted 300 participants with over 200 of them from some of the leading global financial institutions.

The event featured great presentations from some of the largest financial organizations including Citi, JP Morgan Chase, HSBC, and Northern Trust as well as interactive discussions and a special guest presentation by Lawrence Dallaglio, one the UK’s greatest rugby stars.
