   We were extremely fortunate to have Jerry Corrigan join us to lead the discussion.Jerry joined Goldman Sachs in 1994 and became a partner in 1996.At Goldman Sachs, Jerry is co-chair of the firm-wide Risk Management Committee, vice chair of the Business Practices Committee and a member of the firm-wide Commitments Committee.Jerry ended his 25 year career with Federal Reserve System in 1993 when he stepped down from his position as president and chief executive officer of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.Jerry had been chief executive officer of the New York Fed and vice chairman of the Federal Open Markets Committee since 1984.Jerry has also served as president of the Federal Bank of Minneapolis and Special Assistant to Fed chairman, Paul Volcker.
   ...
   Most importantly for this program, Jerry is Chairman of the Counterparty Risk Management Policy Group II.
   ...
   We heard Jerry discuss his reasons for reconvening the Policy Group and his thoughts on the state of global finance and how market participants (such as those in attendance) can mitigate risk.In reviewing background for reconvening the Policy Group, he emphasized the need for a preventive approach rather than reactive one.He spoke about how substantive the report is, including the exhibits.Jerry advised the audience to read the report carefully.
   
   Jerry made the point that, if firms are treating the self assessment process seriously, they shouldn't be scoring themselves favorably against the Report's recommendations and guiding principles.
   
   Each attendee to the program received a copy of an interview that Jerry Corrigan gave to RMA Headquarters in September that will appear in the November RMA Journal.It contains a quote that summarizes his view of risk management.It is,
   
   "Risk management, to me still comes down to the very simple proposition of getting the right information to the right people at the right time so those people can ask the right questions and make the best judgments.That's the essence of it".
