“2012 如何在逆境中向銀行及生意夥伴有效地展示你的良好信譽” 網絡硏討會

04/23/2012

Apr 23 - Jun 23

世界經濟與金融體系正處於非常脆弱階段，歐元區主權債務危機的不確定性正衝擊全球經濟，雖然各地央行正推出各項放寬銀根措施以圖加強市場流動性，但在種種不確定性的前提下，銀行或生意夥伴難免對風險管理的意識大為提高，在審批信貸時會較審慎或大幅減低信貸額度。
在此情況下，中小型企業往往前後受敵，一方面面對訂單減少，另一方面對銀行或生意夥伴的信貸緊縮，企業在逆境中如何能保持優勢？爭取信貸主動權將成為關鍵！

理信風險評級有限公司(“CTRISKS”) 是根據“證券及期貨條例” 獲香港證監會發牌的五間信貸評級機構之一，將探討如何向銀行或生意夥伴有效地展示信譽以把握信貸及商業先機。香港通用公證行有限公司 (“SGS”) 國際認證服務專家將分享企業現行面對的營運危機及應如何裝備。

內容:
企業現行面對的營運危機因素
如何促進銀行審批貸款
如何提升供應鍊夥伴之間的信貸信心
品質信用評估計畫簡介

對象: 各大、中企業的管理層、財務總監及財務主任
語言: 粵語
費用: 全免

講者簡介:
王澤森博士現任理信(CTRISKS)風險評級有限公司主席及香港城市大學教授，王博士曾替五家銀行設計風險管理系統，包括香港第一個成功銜接巴塞爾標準的內部評級系統。

提高审核技能实施增值审核研讨会

05/25/2012

May 25

对于很多组织而言，内审员的审核水平都是组织管理者永远的痛，虽然内审员经过系列的培训，但一次次走过场式的审核费时费力，结果却差强人意，“条款式”的审核无法改善组织的实际问题，也不能应付客户越来越苛刻的要求
“增值审核方法”正是为了解决组织在内部审核中所遇到的困惑而开发，它从ISO 9000中所倡导的过程方法入手，分析审核的内在目的，利用质量体系中一系列的问题解决工具，引导内审员由“条款式”的审核转向“过程方法”的审核思路，从而达到使内审核能为管理者解决实际问题，并真正成为质量系统改善的工具。
为帮助广大企业体系管理人员更好地运用内审的工具，真正理解掌握“以过程为导向”的审核方法，促使审核关注“过程绩效”；使内审成为质量改善的有力工具。SGS诚意邀请您参加2012年5月25日在福州举办“提高审核技能. 实施增值审核”专题研讨会，欢迎您参加。

汽车三包法的执行及质量风险研讨会

05/29/2012

May 29

近年来，国家质检总局频繁发出汽车召回令，不仅涉及品牌众多，而且召回规模较大，尽管汽车召回是对消费者负责任的一种体现，但相信没有哪个人能够忍受自己的汽车频繁回厂维修，汽车的质量、安全性能等都受到了质疑。业界据此分析，这或可视作汽车“三包”政策即将出台的强烈信号。与此呼应，消费者期盼“汽车三包法”早日出台的呼声，最近又再度变得强烈。

研讨会内容要点
 运用TS五大核心工具减少产品设计风险，降低产品不良率与缺陷召回的风险
 品质驾驭未来——SGS汽车测试平台在汽车产业链中产品质量保证应用

食品安全追溯管理解决方案研讨会

06/07/2012

Jun 7

近年来，食品安全危机频繁发生，从疯牛病到瘦肉精、问题奶粉等，严重威胁了人们的身体健康和生命安全，引起全世界的广泛关注。这些关于食品安全的事故表明，暴露问题的环节往往并非是造成问题的环节，链的前期某些环节导致的隐患会在链的以后某个环节中爆发。一旦出现食品安全问题，沿着其流通链进行追溯查找问题的根源所在进行补救的措施就显得至关重要。食品追溯体系能快速而准确的查询到食品的各供应环节信息，也可以向上层层进行追溯，最终确定问题所在，从而将食品安全问题对消费者、品牌和公司的危害减到最小。

The Forum has developed into an enduring mining industry event, thanks in no small part to the support of industry leaders worldwide.

The delegation is made up of mining and exploration companies, brokers, bankers, investors, financiers and mining service industries. A 70 strong media contingent ensures that the proceedings of the Forum are widely reported.

Africa Down Under

08/29/2012

Aug 29 - 31

The positive, changing face of the African continent is continuing to attract the lion’s share of global exploration dollars as prospectors zoom in on its untold mineral riches. Countries which were previously considered no-go areas have attracted a new wave of international investors, explorers and miners wanting to have another look. Striking examples of these are Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Mozambique.

Over the nine years that Australia’s Paydirt has been hosting the Africa Down Under Conference, there has been a surge in the growth rates of nearly all African countries, largely driven by the unparalleled demand for commodities from China. This ancient land mass of Africa is without question the world’s greatest treasure trove – and has yet to be comprehensively explored using modern techniques.

While much of the continent has, in the past, attracted the major companies, a new era of joint ventures with juniors and grub-staking is taking place from Ghana in the north-west, to Kenya in the east and down south in the all-powerful triad of South Africa, Botswana and Namibia.

The action across the continent is taking place hard and fast there could not be a better time to explore the options and hear the stories from the people who are unlocking the wealth of the formerly “Dark Continent”. The lights have come on in Africa, and you cannot afford to miss Africa Down Under, Pan Pacific Perth (formerly Sheraton Hotel) and Novotel Perth Langley, on 29 August - 31 August 2012.

Apart from presenting companies, the event will be attended by several African Mines Ministers, business leaders and executives from the mining services industries. Last year, the conference attracted more than 2000 delegates, 166 exhibitors and a full three day programme of top-notch speakers. This year it will be far bigger, consolidating our reputation as the best melting-pot for business conducted between the two continents.

11th AusIMM Mill Operators Conference

10/29/2012

Oct 29 - 31

The last Mill Operators’ Conference was held during the height of the Global Financial Crisis. The challenges of operating at that time challenged the entire economy but none the less the quality of the papers presented in Adelaide was not diminished by the turbulent times.

The challenge for Mill Operators in Australasia now is to meet the ever growing demand for our products in the markets of Asia. The events of 2008-09 illustrated that the markets are vulnerable. The boom appeared to have ended, but quite clearly that was not the case. The minerals industry in Australasia has been given an opportunity to grow and advance again. It must accept that opportunity and ensure that continued thinking and innovation by its people sees it well placed to maintain its position as a cost-effective supplier into the future. It is for that reason that regular forums such as The 11th AusIMM Mill Operators’ Conference are vital to the development of the profession generally. MOC2012 will provide a serious opportunity for practitioners to share their learnings, provide inspiration, and produce an ongoing reference for years to come.

Twelfth PNG Mining and Petroleum Investment Conference

12/03/2012

Dec 3 - 5

The resource industry in Papua New Guinea is experiencing an unprecedented period of activity and growth. Exploration in both the mining and petroleum sectors is at an all time high and significant expenditure is occurring across the nation.

Since the current surge commenced, PNG has successfully added two major mining projects to the country’s portfolio and will soon become the newest member of the exclusive club of LNG producing nations. It will also shortly become the first deep sea mining nation in the world. There is every chance PNG will see the development of several more mining projects in the next five years as well as a number of gas projects, including at least one more LNG development. This is a wonderful success story that few nations of similar size have achieved.

This exciting story will be showcased in this premier conference on the PNG resources sectors. It is an unparalleled opportunity to meet all the players in the industry and the decision makers in Government. The last event attracted over 1200 delegates and was an outstanding success.

The conference offers a wide range of prestigious sponsorship opportunities and the expanded trade exhibition presents an exciting and exclusive opportunity to showcase your company to a very large audience.
