The annual CBOE Risk Management Conference (RMC) is the premiere financial industry conference designed for institutional users of equity derivatives and volatility products. Now in its 30th year in the U.S., CBOE will be hosting the 3rd annual CBOE RMC Europe this fall.

CBOE RMC is an educational forum dedicated to exploring the latest products, trading strategies and tactics used to manage risk exposure, enhance yields and lower portfolio volatility. CBOE RMC brings together top traders, strategists and researchers, enabling participants to learn the state-of-the-art in risk management from true experts in the field.

CBOE RMC’s three-day agenda covers a variety of concepts, challenging attendees to think differently about how they manage positions, employ hedging techniques, utilize equity derivatives, and model and trade volatility.
