UBS International tax attorneys speak for ILS


Recently, Mr. Christopher Andrews St. Victor de Pinho and Ms. Jennifer Sinclaire spoke about "Structured Finance and the Global Credit Crisis" at MCSOL for a group of students and practitioners.  Mr. Pinho and Ms. Sinclaire are in-house tax attorneys for UBS Financial Firm in Stamford, Connecticut.  Mr. Pinho spoke about the devastating economic results stemming from the credit crisis and Ms. Sinclaire explained structured finance and how it is used by the investment banks.  Their dual presentation was extremely enlightening and educational, especially for students (like me) who are trying to understand the market and how this current credit crisis began and implications it has for the future.  
The ILS would like to thank Mr. Pinho and Ms. Sinclaire for taking time out of their busy schedules to come speak at the law school.  Their presentation was a great learning experience and one that will not be forgotten.
