We see great potential for leveraging the strengths of the Canadian operation as well as growth in other investment bank services, such as fixed income cross border and derivative products.

Other clubs have been chasing Darren since the transfer window opened, so we will be delighted to finally get our man.

The final could be the last of its kind to be played in Wales so it goes without saying what it would mean to the club and the supporters.

We have decided that expanding domestic distribution opportunities through strategic investment and acquisition provides significant potential for enhancing revenue, net worth and cash flow. Our board has created and funded a credit line of $637,000 to implement this objective. The souvenir, promotional and gift segment will remain an important part of our core business while we expand distribution channels for the products we source from over 30 Chinese manufacturing companies.

We foresee that this year should be a year of investment and high export growth, therefore we need foreign currencies to finance investment and imports of raw material, as well as capital goods.

Growth was slightly better than we had expected, chiefly due to resilient domestic demand such as corporate capital investment and consumption.
