Wolters Kluwer Financial Services announced today that two of its leading regulatory reporting, risk and finance experts will provide guidance on key challenges in the financial services industry at the Association for Management Information in Financial Services' Profitability, Performance & Risk Annual Conference, April 22-24, at the Astor Hotel in New Orleans.

During the AMIfs conference, Will Newcomer, vice president of Finance, Risk & Reporting, Americas, Wolters Kluwer Financial Services, will present "Technology and the Org. Chart…Contentious or Complimentary?" on Wednesday, April 22 from 2:15 p.m. - 3:15 p.m. Newcomer will examine how banks are managing the organizational changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act and the evolving technologies it requires.

More specifically, Newcomer will address:

• Technological impacts of Dodd-Frank, CCAR and Basel III
• Benefits of making organizational silos work together
• What a return to risk-adjusted performance measures might mean
• Impact parallels between technology and organizational structures from Dodd-Frank
• Future opportunities

"Among all this regulation, financial institutions today need to find ways to better understand their customers, performance metrics and their competition to best position themselves for growth," said Newcomer. "Wolters Kluwer Financial Services' participation in AMIfs' annual conference demonstrates our commitment to helping these institutions develop real business insights that will lead them toward defining and executing performance-driven strategies."
