Greetings from Peter Vassiliou

Dear E.T.P.  IV Scholars,

I am sending you all my love and best greetings and I  wish you a happy 35th. Anniversary of our ETP Programme in Japan and every success in your  reunion. I cannot make it to the 35th. anniversary, I look forward to the 50th.!

Following our ETP Programme I had a fruitful career at the Agricultural Bank of Greece and at the (Central) Bank of Greece, mostly dealing with Japanese banks and international relations, as well as banking supervision.
I  had the chance to visit Brussels quite often participating in working groups at the Commission and the Council. I also attended the Sumitomo Bank Seminar and cooperated with the Bank of Japan.
I am on pension since 2010, in good health overall and enjoying cultural activities in Greece and trips abroad. This year was quite exciting with trips to Lebanon, Scandinavia, Romania and  Moldova, as well as  Northern Italy. Very interesting countries!

I wish the best of everything to every one of you.

Love and best regards from your ETP IV Co-Scholar, and God bless you and your families!
