I attended the Financial Summit Workshopon Sep 21-22 at National Taiwan University in Taipei. Many speakers provided great tutorial and speeches during the sessions. The most important guest is Dr. Edward Altman from Stern School of Business New York University.

Dr. Altman is the developer of the famous Z-Score method for evaluating credit risk of public-traded firms. Although he developed the very first model in 1967, it is still very useful in today's financial environment. Dr. Altman mentioned about the difficulty of developing such a complex model during ancient punch card age of computers. I was surprised by the accuracy of the model.

Dr. Altman has great humor and talked many jokes in his sessions. He also like default and bankrupcy of major companies. I was impressed and learned  a lot during this workshop.
