In 1989, the General Banking and Trust Company, Ltd., in Basel, Switzerland invited Mr. Matrai to conduct detailed studies in the areas of international banking law, securities and small venture investments. This experience led to his expertise in securing governmental debts and to the establishment of Limage Holding.

This major victory for his private firm at the time, Autotrade Company, was one of many career-long achievements.
