July Blog: CII Inter-Institute Cup, CPD Event and new committee members

CII: Inter-Institute Cup

On 5th July, the Investec team won the CII organised ‘Inter-Institute Cup’!

As winners of the 2016 CISI football tournament, we sent Darren O'Reilly and his team over to Chester to represent the Institute (sort of like international duty) and they returned victorious.

Darren said it was good practice for the Investec team and an opportunity to shake off the dust ahead of the major CISI tournament in September.

CPD Event: Brexit 12 months on

A year on from the UK’s vote to leave the European Union, and we are still looking for greater clarity around what Brexit will look like. Professor Michael Dougan reviewed the events of the last 12 months and looked ahead to the challenges facing the UK economy. This is the second time Professor Dougan has spoken at a CPD event for the CISI, and is fast becoming a firm favourite.


New committee branch members and leavers

This month we sadly say goodbye to Victoria Walker, who has been a dedicated committee member since 2012. Her contribution has been nothing short of immense. Having taken on the role of Social Secretary, Victoria has organised many amazing social events and special annual dinners. She will be sorely missed and we wish Tory the very best in all her future endeavours.

The committee welcomes Caroline Eagles; Vice-President Compliance from Pershing and look forward to working with her in the future.
