From the financial crisis through the rise and fall of Build America Bonds, the market has seen more than its share of dramatic, sometimes wrenching change in the past five years — with the good news often outweighing the bad, highlighted by the sector's unaccustomed star turn near the top of the investment-performance charts for 2011.

And the wild ride isn't over yet. From forecasting new-issue volume in a period of unprecedented state and local government austerity to trying to project the impacts on investors, issuers, and bond dealers from the dozens of regulatory efforts percolating in Washington, even the most experienced market mavens are finding their crystal balls a bit cloudy.

Gain clarity at the 2012 National Municipal Bond Summit, presented by The Bond Buyer and the Bond Dealers of America, taking place March 14-16, 2012 at the Doral Golf Resort and Spa, in Miami Beach, FL.

Join the market's most diverse lineup of speakers—representing issuers, investors, dealers, attorneys, rating analysts and regulators—as they share their insights on what's likely to come next, and how you can be prepared. Specific topics to be addressed include:

• Plotting a new national infrastrucuture investment strategy, and how what's at stake as the 2012 Presidential election unfolds and explores tax reform,
• How the new rules coming from Washington regulators are likely to impact how issuers and their advisors do business,
• Plus, an indepth look at the newest capital channel available to municipal borrowers, direct bank lending, and how it is changing the market.

All of our sessions, which offer 15 CONTINUING EDUCATION HOURS, will be held at the comfortable and affordable Doral Resort in Miami ... the perfect place to match formal training with the informal networking opportunities that our audiences demand.

We look forward to having you join us and your peers from across the nation in March!
