TORONTO, ONT. – Touted by organizers as the largest financial services conference in the region, STEP CC 2014 promises to tackle the tough issues facing trust professionals head on.
Under the theme “Explore the Possibilities”, this years’ conference has a stellar line of speakers drawn from the financial services sector and trust sector from around the world. Set to run from May 12 – 14 at Atlantis Resort, Paradise Island, the conference is looking to welcome over 450 delegates from around the region and around the world.
“Increasingly trust professionals are facing a myriad of issues on a daily basis and change seems to be the only constant”, stated Dianne Bingham, Chair of STEP CC 2014. “This conference will provide delegates with thought leadership on a variety of topics and we have stayed true to our mandate to bring together subject matter experts to Nassau from around the globe.”
This years’ keynote address on Sunday evening promises to be a thought provoking launch to the conference – Professor Kevin Dutton will be bringing his own unique view of the world to the conference and it’s an interesting one!
Kevin Dutton has a Ph.D in psychology, and is an expert on the science of social influence. He is a research psychologist and honorary affiliated member of the Calleva Research Centre for Evolution and Human Sciences, Magdalen College, University of Oxford. In his book, The Wisdom of Psychopaths - Lessons in Life from Saints, Spies and Serial Killers, Kevin explores the positive side of being a psychopath, and discovers, first hand, in a ground breaking 'How to make a psychopath' experiment, what it's like to be one. Thankfully, he says, the effects have since worn off.
Thirteen jurisdictions in the Caribbean region are participating in this years’ conference from The Bahamas to Panama with each jurisdiction sitting on the steering committee and assisting in the development of the program.
