Executive Director of Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
Japan Limited Pays a Visit to JAIMS Students
HONOLULU At the
start of the new year, Japan-focused
MBA (JEMBA) and China-focused
MBA (CHEMBA) students were treated to a luncheon with guest
speaker Benjamin Bystrom, Executive Director for
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Japan Limited.
Bystrom discussed much of his experiences and
common duties within Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, imparting significant
insights into the world of Tokyo finance to the attentive JAIMS
students.
With ten years experience in Japan°s capital
markets, Bystrom was able to impart his knowledge of bond issues,
investment banking, and the securitization of loans within the context
of Japan°s current and future economy.
One of the most crucial pieces of advice he
left students with is to specialize their skills and bring ¿something
differentî to the Asian market in order to get their foot in the
door and build a foundation for a long and successful career.
Bystrom, himself, specializes in Structured
Finance and Securitization which has lead him to hold prominent
positions in Tokyo at financial institutions such as
Moody°s Investors Service and
Merrill Lynch. He will soon be expanding his role at Morgan
Stanley Dean Witter to encompass more regions in Asia.
