Credit Default Swaps
OUTSTANDING SPEAKER. SHE DEMONSTRATED HER MASTERY OF THE SUBJECT MATTER AT ALL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE COURSE. HER SUCCINCT DELIVERY STYLE ALLOWED HER TO COVER A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF GROUND IN TWO DAYS, AND ALWAYS MANAGED TO ALLOW TIME FOR QUESTIONS. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER: SHE BROUGHT CLARITY IN EXPLAINING THE BASICS OF A MARKET THAT IS LARGE, GROWING AND TO THE OUTSIDER, SEEMINGLY UNWIELDY.
