At Financial Training Partner we continue to develop our courses to reflect the needs of financial institutions in a turbulent environment. This autumn we will launch new courses within Credit Risk Management and Liquidity Risk Management. We also plan to hold a conference in Denmark on Risk Management in the Pension Sector, where we will focus on the new challenges facing the pension sector during the current crisis. Moreover, we plan to hold a number of 1-day courses on alternative investments; i.e. hedge funds, CDOs, CDS, inflation-linked products and commodity derivatives. Some of these markets have suffered severely during the crises and might represent an interesting investment opportunity now, whereas other markets like the inflation-linked bond market will represent a more defensive strategy for tackling the market. Finally, we have our cornerstone courses which we continue to update and which always receive excellent feedback from our course participants. We look forward to seeing you on our courses in the autumn of 2009! Best regards, In-house courses 18 E-learning 19 Course Calendar 20 Ulrik Jørgen Carsten 2 3
