Dear Members and Friends,

Our Panel Discussion on Thursday, November, 2007 with the topic "Current Status of US Economy and the Federal Reserve Bank's Expected Moves" was a great success. The event was attended by many of our members and their guests. We started our panel discussion with a short reception where everyone enjoyed the delicious hors d'oeuvres along with assorted wines. After our president, Murat Agirnasli made his great opening remarks and introduction of our speakers, Mr. Robert R. Giordano from Bank Leumi USA, took over with his presentation about the current US Real Estate Market. Mr. Jeffrey H. Kaufman from Herrick, Feinstein LLP continued with his point of view on the current US-Market and the 2008 Economic Outlook. Both speakers were remarkable. The panel ended with Q&A where our members had great and dynamic questions.

It was really empowering to hear from most of our attendees how informative, current and enjoyable the panel was. As in our previous events, we enrolled new members during this event.

The Turkish-American Business Forum thanks all who attended the event and welcome those new members into our family. For those who couldn't join us last night, we hope to see you soon at our upcoming events.
