Derivatives Conference in Brazil

August 24 - 27, I'll be attending a congress in the mountain resort town of Campos do Jordoa, hosted by the Brazilian Mercantile & Futures Exchange (BM&F), to represent www.commoditytrader.com another of my websites, that has been growing quite rapidly lately. This event is likely too last minute for most readers, unless you happen to be in the region. Regardless, please join the Newletter list of Commodity Trader.

Derivatives Conference attracts renowned economists, financial analysts and risk managers

Names like Paul Krugman, Kenneth Rogoff, John Hull, Philippe Jorion, and Emanuel Derman, among other important professionals from the areas of economics, finance and risk analysis, have confirmed their presence at the II International Derivatives and Financial Market Conference, which will be held between the 24th and 27th of August 2005 in Campos do Jordão, Brazil.

BM&F’s Chairman, Mr. Manoel Felix Cintra Neto, who has recently returned from Europe, stated that there is an increasing interest by fund managers to participate in the Brazilian capital market. Approximately 300 people, many from international institutions, have already registered to take part in the Conference.
