40 featu Training and Qualification_ Equities_ u New event series: DVFA Wealth Management Symposium The first DVFA Wealth Management Symposium, focusing on the topics “Strategies” and “Products”, was held on 17 June 2008 in Frankfurt. Around 100 participants came together in the DVFA Center, including numerous senior managers from banks and independent asset management firms. Two keynotes kicked off the event: in the first, Dr. Ulrich Stephan of Deutsche Bank presented “Panic or performance: current developments on the capital market and the behaviour of German investors". The second was a speech given in cooperation by Dr. Marc Breidenbach from Berenberg Bank and Prof. Markus Rudolph, who heads the Center of Private Banking at WHU - Otto Beisheim School of Management, on "Holistic asset management”. The second DVFA Wealth Management Symposium, entitled “Wealth Management is Change Management”, took place on 21 October 2008. Once more, the event attracted an impressive number of participants in light of the situation then prevailing in the industry, as more than 100 investment professionals were in attendance. The topics covered included the current crisis and the impact of the new comprehensive capital gains tax (Abgeltungssteuer) on investor behaviour. Dr. Hendrik Leber von Acatis gave the opening lecture on the causes of the crisis and the likely effects on the real economy. With a view to what can be expected down the road, he said: “I don’t know whether we have already seen the worst of the crisis, or there is worse yet to come. But, I am utterly convinced that German equities will have gained substantially in value within the next 2 years.” The Symposium ended with a panel discussion on “The Abgeltungssteuer as a tax on alpha: impacts on investor behaviour”. With the DVFA Wealth Management Symposia, DVFA has continually offered a forum since 2008, in which current topics can be discussed at a professional level between leading representatives of the industry. On 6 May 2009, the event series will continue with the third DVFA Wealth Management Symposium, “Investor psychology and investor behaviour".

featu Impressions from the Equities_ 6th SCC_ The central focus of the event, which has gained international prominence over the past several years, was on 61 individual presentations by the participating SMEs. u 6. DVFA Small Cap Conference from 25 to 27 August 2008 There was an overwhelming response to last year's three-day Small Cap Conference at the DVFA Center in the Signaris building. 61 small and medium-sized companies were in attendance to seek contact with the capital market. Roughly 360 buy and sell-side analysts, institutional investors, asset managers and advisers also came together in the DVFA event space. Well over 400 one-on-one interviews are proof of the high expectations shared by the companies and the attending investors. Ralf Frank, Managing Director of DVFA GmbH commented: “The SCC is an excellent platform for small and medium-sized companies, as it provides a place for small caps to show their real innovation potential. This is now the sixth time that we have brought companies and investors together - and with great success. The SSC gives investment decision-makers insight into the strategies and financial data of the participating companies.” SCC_ 2008: Presenting companies 4SC AG adesso AG Advanced Vision Technology Ltd Altira AG Aragon AG Beate Uhse AG Bio-Gate AG biolitec AG BIOPETROL INDUSTRIES AG Business Media China AG Centrotec Sustainable AG CeWe Color Holding AG CFC Industriebeteiligungen GmbH CompuGROUP Holding AG DESIGN Bau AG DF Deutsche Forfait AG Dresdner Factoring AG EquityStory AG FHR Finanzhaus AG FJA AG GESCO AG GROUP Technologies AG Heliad Equity Partners GmbH IFM Immobilien AG Impreglon AG Integralis AG InVision Software AG ISRA VISION AG KTG Agrar AG KWG Kommunale Wohnen AG Lloyd Fonds AG LPKF Laser & Electronics AG Magnat Real Estate Opportunities GmbH & Co.
