BRIEF CHRONICLE OF THE APAD
The APAD, whose inaugural conference was held in 2004, is an organization comprising academics, practitioners as well as regulators operating in the derivatives markets in the AsiaPacific region. The main objective of this association is to promote research and knowledge on derivative securities and markets. The APAD has been supported by the Korea Exchange (KRX)
and other participating exchanges in the Asia-Pacific region.
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE CITY
• Busan is Korea's second largest city and the largest trading port. This geopolitically situated harbor city sits adjacent to the Korean Straits and Japan, bringing about an interchange of trade and tourism. This intercultural current has made Busan into the international metropolis. Busan has hosted international events such as the 2002 14th Asian Games and the annual Busan International Film Festival (BIFF).
• Sight-seeing in Busan (or Pusan) can typically be classified into two groups: seashore and interior land sight-seeing. Seashore sightseeing includes such sights as the beach areas, islands, and Hae Ahn Park. Busan's most charming tourist point is its beautiful sea vistas. The southeastern beach areas have amazing views of the fantastically shaped rocks and islands, which are a must see. The famous beaches of Haeundae, Gwangalli, and Songjeong are enjoyed by many. Boating, jet skis, and banana boats are just among a few of the water recreation activities visitors can take advantage of. Amnam Park, Igidae, and Haean Park offer views of nature's masterpieces. The natural beauties of Busan can also be taken in by riding the cruise boats in the harbor.
