Scientific paper

We present extensive optical and infrared spectroscopy and photometry, obtained with a suite of telescopes (including VLT), of a sample of counterparts to fast X-ray transients and use them to determine their astrophysical parameters. All the counterparts are OB supergiants. We find that most of these systems are relatively nearby and obscured by large amounts of intervening material.
