	Scotland's First Minister Pitches Financial Service Firms
		McConnell, who as First Minister is head of the Scottish Executive, noted that the process of devolution, whereby the Scottish Parliament was re-established after nearly 300 years of representation in the U.K Parliament, has not only created a resurgence in Scottish identity, it has also conferred independence in domestic policy making.
		Scotland is using that independence, he claimed, to create an environment favorable to companies that invest in Scotland, including reinforcing the country's existing financial services culture and workforce.
		Panelist Lorna Jack, director, North America, Scottish Development International, noted that Scotland has developed "a skilled financial services workforce, including everything from accounting right through IT professionals." But while Scotland wants to emphasize its human capital, it also offers "location, location, location," she said.
