Post-Modern Porfolio Theory with David Siegel
A smart portfolio can mean the difference between a comfortable life and a constant struggle. Most people make poor, emotionally based investment decisions with many biases. Even investing professionals who studied Modern Portfolio Theory did not help their clients in the Global Financial Crisis.
In fact, when I ask professional investment advisors if they would hire themselves if they had $100 million in the bank, they all say of course not. Most pundits, from celebrity investment gurus to leading academics, have simply been wrong about markets and their predictability.
We are entering a new era of machine trading, where the average person has no chance to systematically outperform the markets. Learn about post-modern portfolio theory with David Siegel and start building a smart portfolio today.

U.S. Banks and Data Privacy: CCPA, GDPR, and Beyond Nov 21 2019 6:00 pm UTC 60 mins
Jill Reber & Steve Ernst, (Primitive Logic), Tanya Madison (TD Bank), Ron Whitworth (SunTrust)Gartner includes data ethics and privacy on their list of the top 10 strategic technology trends of 2019, placing these issues on the same level as AI-driven development, blockchain, and edge computing.

This webinar will explore how these regulations — and new data privacy laws appearing around the world — are changing the way financial institutions gather, process, and share personal data. Learn key highlights of GDPR and CCPA readiness, steps to consider in approaching expanded definitions of personal data and individual privacy rights, triggers that can impact compliance status, and business benefits of aligning with data privacy requirements.

Accelerating the Productivity of Financial Advisors with Digital Assistants Jul 22 2019 9:00 pm UTC 45 mins
Sindhu Joseph, Founder and Rajesh Sharma, Head of Customer Experience, CogniCorAccording to McKinsey, AI will trigger an estimated $13 trillion of GDP growth between now and 2030. How can the wealth management industry capitalize on the latest artificial intelligence advancements to stay ahead of the technological curve, thereby both driving down long term costs and increasing overall productivity?
Through the use of CogniCor’s CIRA platform, wealth management firms can create and maintain their own virtual assistants (VAs) which through the use of workflows can automate complex tasks for both financial advisors and their customers. Through the rapid ingestion of vast amounts of data, the virtual assistant allows financial advisors to interact more on a personal level with their clients, thereby helping them to reach their wealth management goals more effectively.
The time that an advisor spends should be focused on working with their clients. By automating standard operations, advisors can focus on improving their clients’ portfolios, understanding their goals, and ultimately maximizing their short, medium and long term potential for growth.
Many financial advisors and wealth management firms are still unaware of how technology enhances financial advisors’ performance. CogniCor is poised to be a leader in the industry, and look forward to bringing our experience with enterprise leaders to the rest of the industry players, be they small, medium or enterprise firms. -

As a Data Analyst at Alloy, a fintech company that provides identity verification APIs for clients’ KYC (know your customer) and AML (anti-money laundering), she has firsthand experience in enhancing fraud prevention efforts through data analysis. She will dive into the ways the use of data is currently advantageous to fraud prevention, as well as the challenges that are presented in this quickly changing space. -

Identity and Access Management: A License to Operate Recorded: Jul 17 2019 47 mins
Philip Dutton, Co-Founder, SolidatusThere are three pillars to control in a data rich, regulated company – these are what data you have, what it is being used for and who is using it. These pillars have nuances as well, for example where is the person, the data or the process and how old is the data. In the current data climate, it is normal for a company to have a policy to tell people (customers as well as staff) the rules of the road for accessing information. Enshrining this policy into the fabric of the organisation so that people do not have to think about it as well as satisfying the current trend of DevOps is the key to allowing a fast iteration culture, delivering value without creating more overheads.
About the speaker:
Co-founder, Philip Dutton, has led Solidatus from concept through to launch and now accelerated growth. Working to help organisations utilise visual lineage to enable understanding and simplification of complex systems landscapes, demonstrate regulatory lineage, improve governance and assist with transformational change. With 20 years of experience as a Senior System Architect, Engineer and Project Manager within the Financial Services industry, Philip’s expertise focuses on global transformational change projects within global organisations.

Philip Miller, Co-Founder, SolidatusMany cloud migrations end up as a thunderstorm, financial services organisations must embrace the cloud, but it is not as simple as just running up an application off-prem.

In addition to this, there are considerations such as data transfer and cloud suitability which need to be fully worked through before placing functionality outside of the corporate network. Solidatus helps to plan the strategy and migration path to cloud by plotting data/processing boundaries, providing control and transparency for stakeholders and smoothing the transition to the future state.
