Program Overview

Current and anticipated regulatory changes will have an important impact on two critical investment sectors: Energy and financial services. If you invest in, perform financial analysis on or work at energy or financial service companies, it’s imperative that you be aware of the latest regulatory changes occurring in Washington, DC and at a state level in order to assess what opportunities and risks these changes present to the companies you follow, invest in or work at.

On Tuesday, June 6, the Regulation and Market Integrity Thought Leadership Group will sponsor two panel discussions made up of leading experts in both sectors to discuss current and anticipated regulatory changes impacting these sectors to help CFANY members assess those opportunities and risks.

The Financial Service Panel will discuss investment considerations associated with current proposed regulatory relief for midsized/smaller banks, targeted Dodd-Frank ACT rollbacks, DOL fiduciary rule implementation issues and the emergence of “shadow banking” sector and its impact on traditional bank business lines. The Energy Panel will discuss practical issues associated with the current rollbacks in energy and environmental regulations, issues with respect to the U.S. withdrawal from the Paris climate accord and energy infrastructure and pipeline initiatives.
