Communications Risk Management Takes Center Stage at TRMA

Published: February 10, 2011 by Guest Contributor

TRMA’s Spring Conference scheduled for February 22-23, 2011
As you probably already know, the mission of the Telecommunications Risk Management Association (TRMA) is to “drive positive change in order to reduce fraud and optimize risk for the benefit of the industry, individual members and paying customers.” As part of that mission, TRMA is committed to bringing together risk management professionals several times a year for information-sharing forums. The organization’s 2011 Spring Conference is scheduled for February 22-23, 2011 at the Treasure Island Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

And it allows us to share what we see as up-and-coming trends as well as new developments in risk management.
