These days the School is host to a prominent visitor these days. Dr Kenneth Brevoort, a Senior Economist at the Federal Reserve Board in Washington DC, is visiting to the end of June during which time he will be working with the Credit Research Centre. Dr Brevoort holds a post in the Financial Structure section at the Federal Reserve Board and his publication includes work relating to data from the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. Speaking of credit research, the Credit Scoring and Credit Control XI Conference is moving ahead at a steady pace and you can read more about this by visiting the Credit Research Centre site.
Another exciting bit of news, for us here at the School at least, is that our new website will go live very soon. If all goes to plan then we will present a very different face to the World at Midnight 1 June 2009. I do hope you will like our new look.
If you are in Edinburgh and have nothing else planned then maybe you’d like to come to an evening of Chilean guitar music. Carlos Arredondo and Galo Cerón will present a journey through some of Chile’s greatest songwriters. If you are into guitar music then this is definitely something for you. It is at 7:30pm at St John’s Church tomorrow 23 May.
