SCI'09 Conference London- July 2^nd.

SCI ’09 provides an important networking and educational forum for the structured finance community. This year the conference will dig deeper into strategies for opportunistic investors and offer discussions regarding pricing and valuations of ABS, CDO and CDS instruments.

Investor strategies across asset classes and explanations of how regulatory reform is shaping the future of the market will also be a highlight. With buy-side investors invited to attend free*, now is arguably the most important time for key market participants to attend SCI ‘09 as the future of the market takes shape.

“SCI ’08 London was a success for us. We made some excellent new contacts on the buy-side as a result of exhibiting at the conference”. - Jamie Harper, VP Europe, Lewtan Technologies

“ We should still close some business from the contacts I met at the last SCI event. We had some very good leads.
They were leads with cash. The only kind that count in this market.” - Sponsor of SCI’08 New York
