Improving sustainability in banks through liquidity and capital management

While regulatory pressure on managing liquidity risks is valid, as the dark days of the global economic crisis would attest, the more pressing practical problem appears to be how to trade off between meeting liquid capital needs and ensuring profitability in a time of low margins. This forum is designed to discuss practical ideas for applying business models, techniques on an active liquidity position in a commercially viable manner, and discussing the limitations of regulatory requirements. In this session we will look at:

Summit Closing Keynote Session

What should bankers live for
A 1-on- 1 interview with Michael Bernard DeNoma, Chairman, Chinatrust Commercial Bank one of the more aggressively growing Pan-Asian franchises.

On March the 28th 2011 Mr. Michael Bernard DeNoma completed the cross-country marathon dubbed "the Protect the Children 400 Km Ultra- Marathon". Mr. Michael Bernard DeNoma ran the 400km ultra-marathon from Kaohsiung to Taipei as Part of China's Silk Road Run to help raise
awareness on the issues of water shortages. When Mr. DeNoma is not running marathon's for great causes he has expanded the Chinatrust
Commercial Bank franchise to become a truly greater China institution. Chinatrust Commercial Bank has 145 domestic and 75 overseas outlets
and is the Taiwanese bank with the most extensive international network.

Mr. DeNoma is more closely associated with causes like the ICMEC and his work with 'Light Up A Life' campaign. This has not prevented the
Chinatrust Commercial Bank from growing many folds since he became chairman.

  • Who is this man and where is he taking the bank?
  • What can we learn from him about what matters and what doesn't in growing a franchise?
  • What is his real impact on the institution and how will his achievements be measured?
  • In a world where bankers have been closely associated with greed what does it mean to care?
