In Frankfurt on 30th March 2006, DNV invited several high ranking risk management professionals from finance and aviation to a business breakfast.

These two industries traditionally don’t communicate together on the common and very industry-relevant topic Risk Management. The subject is extremely important to both, but often evaluated from different perspectives.

DNV’s Matthias Hinze, chairman of the meeting, comments: “This was an experiment, to understand if there is interest in learning from each other’s experience. Further, if the different methodologies and approaches to risk management in such different industries can be transferred”.

Many points of interest were raised by several participants and a list of specific themes and questions was drawn as a basis for a future discussion with experts on the specific topics.
