Welcome We are happy to welcome you to an interesting autumn season at Financial Training Partner. This year you will find a number of new courses. In Denmark, you will be able to attend a seminar on Covered Bonds as well as an introduction course to the same topic. You will also find a course in Alternative Investments reflecting the Asset Management Industry s request for new asset classes with low correlations to bonds and stocks. Finally, we hold a new seminar on Equity Derivatives in Stockholm. In the course catalogue, you will also find our cornerstone courses which we hold throughout the Scandinavian countries and which, we are proud to say, always receive excellent feedback from our course participants. We hope to see you on one of our courses in the autumn of 2007. Ulrik Jørgen Carsten 3
