Zurich Doctoral Dinner 2008


Zurich members of the Swiss Finance Institute Doctoral Program met for their annual dinner last Tuesday, April 15th.

NCCR-Finrisk managing director Eckart Jaeger was MC for the event, held at the Restaurant zum GrĂ¼nen Glas in the centre of Zurich's Altstadt (old town).

As you can see from the photo gallery of the event, there was lively discussion throughout the evening and a presentation by former CEO of the Zurich Stock Exchange, Dr Richard Meier, charting the history of automated trading in Switzerland. More on that later.

Eckart congratulated recent graduate Dr Leon Stacescu for his appointment to a faculty position at the BI/Norwegian School of Management in Oslo and presented the doctoral students with their new SFI business cards (photo).
