Next week, spring conference season kicks off as three conferences of interest to money market professionals take place. ALM/SRI hosts the "11th Annual Asset Backed Commercial Paper Summit" on May 7-8 at the Westin New York at Times Square, which should attract its share of networking job-seekers. Also, the Investment Company Institute hosts the biggest mutual funds conference in the country, ICI's annual General Membership Meeting May 7-9 at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington. Finally, the Treasury Management Association of Chicago hosts the 22nd Annual Windy City Summit on May 7-9 at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. Crane Data won't be making it to any of these shows, but we'll be on the road speaking at the SFTMA/SVTMA/PTMA Dinner May 14 in San Francisco, Treasury Mgmt. of New England May 21-23 in Boston, and New York Cash Exchange May 28-30 in NYC later this month.
