give a five-day seminar in Bermuda next week, Bank of Bermuda said on Friday.

The seminar featuring Sam Srinivasulu is hosted by the Bank of Bermuda and Euromoney Publications Plc. takes place from September 9-13 at Marriott's Castle Harbour Resort.

Mr. Srinivasulu, a consultant with Global Financial Strategies in Michigan, has consulted to insurance companies, financial institutions, central banks and regulatory bodies worldwide.

Euromoney is a leading financial industry training organisation. The firm also organises conferences and publishes law, tax and specialist journals.

The seminar, which costs participants $3,300, will take a step by step practical approach to asset liability management.

Participants will come from Jamaica, Chile, the US, Canada, Italy and Bermuda.

A programme of this calibre is a "tremendous opportunity,'' the bank's corporate training manager Kimberly Selley said.

"Traditionally, training of this kind and depth could only be attained by attending a programme overseas.''
