Sydney - 14 May 2003

ANOTHER INFORMATIVE BUSINESS DAY that started out with a trip to the Citigroup offices for a discussion on global corporate structuring and tax planning. After a short lunch break, we made our way past multiple security checkpoints into the U.S. Consulate General to hear about the United States' and Austrailia's Free Trade Agreement. As we wound up the business day, the group enjoyed dinner together along Darling Harbour.

The group takes notes as we learn about tax policies from Citigroup representative Samir Lalvani
